Enriched Air Nitrox Course

Dispite what many people think, Nitrox is not a gas for deep diving. It is actually the opposite. High pressures of oxygen can be toxic. The Enriched Air Nitrox course will dispell the misconceptions about diving on Nitrox and teach you the proper skills required for safe diving on elavated pressures of oxygen on our breather gas.

The benefits of diving on Nitrox are great. By replacing nitrogen in our breathing gas, we can recognize longer bottom times and shorter surface intervals. During this course we will teach you how to plan Nitrox dives, use Nitrox enabled diving computers/tables and analyze your breathing gas to ensure safe diving operations within recreational limits. This course certifies you to obtain and dive on Nitrox mixtures from 22% to 40% oxygen.
