dump valve

I have Waterproof d7x Nylotech drysuit with a "non-DIR" dump valve position, which causes difficulties with dumping air on accent while remaining in trim (see photos below). I was proposed to install Sitech Cuff Dump or similar. What is the most proper, or "best practice" position for it? On...

I heard a lot of good things of Seaskin drysuits. Since I need a backup drysuit, I decide to give it a try. So here’s the question, which dump valve should I choose? Apeks high profile or low profile? I have high profile on my Santi suit which works great, but I have never tried any low profile...

hi guys, Could anyone share a tutorial or manual taking me through the steps to service myself my Apeks High Profile dump valve? It started leaking last week, despite being water proof for 1+ years. Youtube is generous on videos when it comes to the more recent Apeks low-profile valve, but not...

My BC dump valve was torn out and now needs to be replaced. 1. how to clean the dump valve site? 2. how to install the valve? 3. how to seal it? 4. how to check it? Much obliged

Hi there! It would be my first question here, didn’t find any answer on the net, so I try it here. :) I starting to buy my equipment and got a question about BP/W. (I’m aiming for recreational diving, nothing too technical. ;) ) Is it possible to change a simple elbow joint on a corrugated...

Hi Guys, Just like to know if any of you have had the plastic bladder flanges break off on you bc’s. ScubaPro do not sell the flange as a spare part and the hole in the flange is larger that most other bc’s so one cannot fit another one. Leaving you with a bc that is worthless also these faulty...

Hello, I've recently bough the XDEEP NX Project set and I really love it, especially the harness. However, I had difficulties grabbing the dump valve handle of my wing with gloves. The original handle proved to be a bit small and elusive for my poor frontal lobe. So, for the next dive, I...

Hi guys, I am looking for a way to test my shoulder dump valve for leaks at home (as opposed to getting discomfort during so many more dives…). It’s leaking for sure, but not always (depends how open and how squeezed I am in the suit). I like a lot what this guy did – his video shows how he...

I've got a Zeagle Ranger BCD (bought new in '04 and been used regularly since then) that seems to have developed a leak from one of the bottom dump valves. I dove yesterday and when cleaning my gear, I noticed I had an usual amt of water in my bladder but didn't think too much of it cause we'd...

Hello, Just wondering if anyone knows the part # or where / how to get a replacement rubber seal / gasket for the dump valve on a HydrosPro BCD. I don't have any problems with it right now but I always like to have spare parts, if possible. Thank you in advance for any help.

I am building up my spare parts for travel and wonder if anyone can tell me where to find a scubapro dump valve?

I recently sent my drysuit in for some mods, and my dump valve was "re-sealed/glued". Unfortunately, it seems that the sealant/glue used to mount the valve to the suit also got in the threads that couple the inside and outside valve parts, and I cannot unscrew the valve to take it off. (There...

Hello! I am a fairly inexperienced diver. I am a scuba diver from the Philippines and has always been diving here, going to the same dive shops for the last three years. Then I went to a new dive operator last month. The things I noticed about the BCD was that it has only one dump valve, and has...
