Why PADI Enriched Air Diver?
By diving with enriched air rather than standard air you can extend your nodecompression limits. This means more time underwater. For example, if you dive to15 metres/50 feet on air, your no decompression limit is 80 minutes. But, diving on EANx 36 Nitrox 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 been enrolled in another course simultaneously. In other words a student enrolled in the PADI Rescue Diver Course, for example, can also take the PADI Enriched Air Diver Nitrox Course at the same time.
