Why become a PADI Enriched Air diver?
By diving with enriched air (EANx) rather than standard air you can extend
your no decompression limits. This means more time underwater. For example, if
you dive to 15
meters/50 feet on air, your no decompression limit is 80
minutes. But, diving on EANx36 gets you 220 minutes of no decompression time -
an increase of 140 minutes.
Plus, the Enriched Air Diver course is the only course that allows students to
be enrolled in another course simultaneously. In other words, a student
enrolled in the PADI Advanced
Open Water Diver course, for example, can also take the PADI Enriched
Air Diver course at the same time.
This course is designed to be an introduction to Enriched Air - Nitrox diving
and to help develop the skills, knowledge and techniques necessary for Enriched
Air diving.
