Extend Your Bottom Time with Enriched Air
Are you tired of being limited by your no-decompression limits? This is the entry-level certification course for recreational divers wishing to utilize enriched air nitrox (EAN) as a breathing gas. The objective of this course is to train divers in the benefits, hazards, and proper procedures for using nitrox mixes from 22 through 40 percent oxygen content. Upon successful completion of this course, graduates may engage in diving activities utilizing a single gas of EAN-22 to EAN-40, and not requiring decompression, without direct supervision.
The XR Explorers Difference: The DIR Advantage
Since entry level nitrox is essentially an informational and academic based course, no dives are specifically required as there are no skills to evaluate. However, understanding gas physiology is a core component of the DIR (Doing It Right) philosophy. At XR Explorers, Nitrox 32% gas fills are included by default for all our course dives at no additional cost, so earning this certification is essential for your future training with us. If optional dives are scheduled to effectively demonstrate the advantages of EAN use in practical field use, they will be conducted using our premium Backplate & Wing systems.
