Don't trust your life to just anyone. Annual maintenance and proper care of your equipment is what gives you the confidence to depend on your gear. You need to trust that it's going to function properly and you need to trust who's servicing it.

Serpent Aquatics has the experience, background and knowledge to keep your equipment in top shape. If we can't fix it, we will tell you so. We are also very up front about the fact that if we don't sell the product, we cannot complete warranty work. We will however try to help you find someone who can service your equipment, if we cannot.

At Serpent Aquatics, our after sales service is as important as the sale itself. Any equipment purchased at Serpent Aquatics comes with a service commitment which includes a "preferred service rate" that will reduce the cost of your annual service on all your equipment.

"Serpent Aquatics will not fill any cylinder that does not have a current visual inspection decal (within the last year) from a recognized facility or inspector."

As of July 1st 2008 we will no longer accept generic VIP decals from any agency. There must be some indication that allows us to trace back the cylinder to whom ever last inspected it before we fill it. (ie: store name, inspector number etc.)
