Default Reg & BCD setvice intervals ???

I have aset of Tusa regs and a Platina BCD that I purchased almost 12
months ago. I have only done just over 20 dives with the BCD and about 10
with the regs..

When should I look at having these seviced ?

Some suggest every 12 months...but just wondering if there's also number of
dives I should base this on too ??

Check your owners manual to see the recommended interval and warranty
provisions. If the regulator is waranteed for life, you probably need it
serviced every 12 or every 24 months, depending on the terms of the
warranty. Proper care and maintenance of equipment is essential and it's
best to follow the manufacturer's recommendations.

I have most of my regulators serviced every 12 months, receive free kits,
and maintain the lifetime warranty. I don't do anything with the BCD/wing
or drysuit valves until there is a problem. For the most part, my equipment
is only exposed to fresh water. If it was in the ocean, a different service
schedule would be adopted.
