Aqualung recommendation is annual service, same as most manufacturers.

This has never failed to make me laugh and just shake my head.

What is the difference, someone who makes 20 dives a year or someone who makes 200 a year, but we all must service annually or suffer greatly.

From Aqualung website:

Regulators:​

Limited Lifetime Warranty. This warranty will cover the original owner of the regulator against defects in parts or workmanship for the lifetime of the regulator if the regulator is:

1. Purchased from an Authorized Aqualung America Dealer
2. Inspected or serviced annually by an Authorized Aqualung America Dealer as outlined in the Free Parts for Life Program.

I'm at the 20-25 dives a year, but my LDS keeps telling me to bring in gear and alternates with inspection one year and service the next (what's the difference?) Of course, if it needed service on an inspection year, they would take care of it.
