Troubleshooting
Mask keeps fogging up.
Before use, apply a small amount of anti-fog solution, baby shampoo, or spit to the inside of the lenses, rub it around, and then lightly rinse. Ensure the mask is clean and free of oils.
Mask is leaking water.
Check that the mask strap is not too tight (over-tightening can cause leaks). Ensure no hair is caught under the silicone skirt. Make sure the skirt is clean and free of debris. Ensure the mask size is appropriate for your face.
Snorkel fills with water frequently.
Ensure the snorkel's top is consistently above the water surface while breathing. If diving, practice forceful exhalation (purge) upon resurfacing. Check the purge valve for blockages or damage if applicable.
Mask is uncomfortable or leaves red marks.
The strap may be too tight; loosen it slightly. The mask might be too small or too large for your face. Ensure the silicone skirt is properly positioned and not folded under.
Difficulty breathing through snorkel.
Ensure the snorkel tube is clear of obstructions. Take slow, deep breaths. If the snorkel has a dry top mechanism, ensure it's not stuck in the closed position. Your breathing rhythm might need adjustment.
FAQs
How do I prevent my mask from fogging?
To prevent fogging, you can use a commercial anti-fog spray, a drop of baby shampoo, or even just saliva on the inside of the lenses. Rub it around, then rinse lightly with water before wearing. For new masks, gently scrub the inside of the lenses with non-abrasive toothpaste to remove manufacturing film.
Is this combo suitable for children?
While the adjustable features allow for some versatility, this particular model is generally designed for adults or older youths. For smaller children, look for a 'junior' or 'kids' specific mask and snorkel combo that offers a smaller skirt and mouthpiece for a better fit.
Can I use this in saltwater and chlorine pools?
Yes, the Aqualung Combo Mix is designed for use in both saltwater and chlorinated swimming pools. Always rinse the mask and snorkel thoroughly with fresh, clean water immediately after each use to prolong its lifespan and prevent material degradation.
How should I clean and store my combo mix?
After each use, rinse thoroughly with fresh water. Allow all components to air dry completely out of direct sunlight. Store in a cool, dry place, away from extreme temperatures and direct UV light. Avoid storing it under heavy objects that could deform the silicone skirt.
What is the material of the mask skirt?
The mask skirt is typically made from soft, high-grade silicone, chosen for its comfort, flexibility, and ability to create a reliable seal against the face. Info needed: [Specific type or grade of silicone used]

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Initial Setup
- Inspect: Before first use, thoroughly inspect all components for any signs of damage or manufacturing defects.
- Rinse: Rinse the mask and snorkel with fresh water to remove any factory residues.

- Suitable for use in both freshwater and saltwater environments.
Care & Maintenance
- Rinse After Each Use: Always rinse your mask and snorkel thoroughly with fresh, clean water after every use, especially after use in saltwater or chlorinated water. This prevents salt crystal buildup and chlorine damage.
- Dry Completely: Allow all components to air dry completely out of direct sunlight before storing. This prevents mildew and odors.
- Storage: Store the combo in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Store the mask flat or in a protective case to prevent distortion of the silicone skirt. Do not store with heavy objects on top of it.
- Avoid Harsh Chemicals: Do not use abrasive cleaners, solvents, or petroleum-based products on your mask or snorkel as these can damage the silicone and plastic materials.
- Protect Lenses: Avoid placing the mask lens-down on rough surfaces to prevent scratches.
