Nitrox Course

The oxygen content of ordinary compressed air (the same air that you are probably currently breathing) is about 20.9% - by increasing the partial pressure of oxygen in the mixture, the benefits are significantly e.g. extending your bottom times with dives.

1] You can choose the course as a theory course, which includes a self-study section and one from the theory, which covers diving with enriched air, the undeniable benefits as well as the risks of enriched air, gas analysis, gas tank labeling and enriched air production methods. In the course, we utilize the learned information with various exercises in which we use gas mixtures of different strengths as example values.

2] You can also add two Nitrox dives to the course, where in addition to the above, you order two tank Nitrox from your trainer and we go diving with two enriched air dives. Here you will have the opportunity to deepen your knowledge and skills and together with the trainer you will be able to do your first Nitrox dives. The time of the course dives will be agreed with the course participants during the course.

After the course, (then you chose whichever way to complete the course) you will receive a PADI Enriched Air Diver rating that entitles you to dive with 21-40% Nitrox, fill gases within those limits into your tanks, and buy / dive with Nitrox anywhere in the world.
