Manufacturer Recall Notice:

Products affected: Crimped Low Pressure Hoses supplied by Ambient Pressure Diving.
Ambient Pressure Diving

The upper a good hose – eight flats can be seen on the hose collar. Below is a faulty hose, the hose collar is smooth.

It has come to our attention that some LP hoses have been released from the factory without being crimped and while these hoses work properly for a time, there is potential and a very real risk of the hose fittings coming away from the hose.

As a precaution we are asking all owners to visually inspect their hoses if purchased since January 2007.

Do not dive with defect hoses and please contact the factory to obtain replacements.
