And there are also some simple tactics for buoyancy compensator maintenance, just rinse the buoyancy compensator with fresh water after every use. Also fill the air bladder with fresh water and drain out. You can add Listerine mouth wash to the water to kill any germs. Also use warm water to remove salt crystals the may form within the bladder.
