About Us
AirEquipo is run by licensed engineer Paul Sturgess. Paul worked as a PADI instructor for many years, before deciding that his passion lay in understanding the technical side of diving equipment. He spent many years and much of his spare time learning the inner workings of compressors and diving equipment, before finally setting up on his own. Paul set up a fully licensed workshop in 2014 to meet a growing demand in the Canary Islands for a genuinely licensed and qualified scuba technician. Paul is extremely knowledgeable and also offers impartial advice in all aspects of running or setting up a dive centre. Read our customer testimonials for more information.
