Scuba Regulator Savvy by Pete Wolfinger: The Technician's Essential Guide

For years, "Regulator Savvy" has been the go-to manual for professional scuba regulator service technicians. Written by Pete Wolfinger, founder of Scuba Tools, this spiral-bound book offers a comprehensive understanding of how regulators function and how to properly maintain them.

This isn't just a step-by-step repair guide. "Regulator Savvy" takes a unique approach, divided into two key sections:

  • Understanding Function: The first half delves into the fundamental principles of how regulators work – the "why" behind their operation.
  • Practical Application: The second half applies this knowledge to the "art" of adjusting regulators for optimal performance, including testing procedures and troubleshooting tips – the "how."

With over 300 detailed illustrations across 180+ pages, the book makes complex mechanisms easier to visualize and understand. The text is written in a familiar style, using everyday language to explain technical concepts clearly.

While primarily aimed at new and experienced service technicians, "Regulator Savvy" is also incredibly valuable for any serious diver who wants a deeper understanding of how their life support equipment works. Its value is recognized within the industry, even being used by brands like Hog/Edge to help train their technicians!

Important Note from the Author: This manual provides foundational knowledge but is not a stand-alone do-it-yourself guide for regulator repair. Scuba regulators are life support equipment and should always be treated with the utmost respect and serviced by qualified individuals.

Extensive book of regulator design and maintenance
Review by
Purchased this boot to help me understand and eventually work on my own regulators. If you plan on reading this book from cover to cover it is a hard read (at least for me), as a lot of the material is dry, but there is so much knowledge here. Highly recommend.

Poorly Written
Review by
This book could have been great, but it jumps around, does not flow well, and is so repetitive, it's a struggle to read. With tha being said, I do now understand how my regulator works. Buts that's more likley attributed to the reg class I took than the book. The book came unwrapped in a cardboard box with no packaging to stop it from being thrown around during shipping. As a result, it came looking worn and used. Fortunately, DRIS took care of it!

Excellent Resource

This book is an excellent resource for anyone interested in servicing their own regulators, it takes a somewhat confusing subject and states in clear simple language.

The author takes a complex subject and makes it easy enough to understand. If you can use a dive table, you can understand this book.

An absolute must for anyone that plans to service regulators or just wants to know how things are put together. I purchased mine in preparation for taking the HOG regulator service tech course and even if I wasn't planning on taking the course, is manual was a great buy.

EXCELLENT Book for learning the function of your dive gear. Puts the function and operation in simple to understand concepts. DRIS staff is great and works with you more than any other company I have found.

Outstanding book. There was something back in the late 90s/early 2000s called the underground regulator maintenance manual. This book is superior to that, and is just outstanding.

No reason you can't maintain your own gear using this book and the service manual of your equipment.

This book teaches the fundamental functions of regulators. You learn what the parts are, how they work, and how each is effected by or effects the pressure differential. It is divided into two sections. The first section gets down to the nuts and bolts of basic regulator function. The second section applies this knowledge to the “art” of adjusting the regulator for optimum performance. This book is for any diver that wants to really understand how his/her regulator works.
After reading this book you may find you want to hover over the shoulder of the repair technician the next time you get your annual regulator services, both to learn more and to make sure he/she is taking good care with your life protecting equipment. At the very least you will find a good reason to make sure that service shop at your local dive shop is orderly and clean before you allow them to work your regulator.
DRIS provides excellent product, fast shipping and superb communication - a pleasure to do business with them!
