Nitrox Diver Specialty Course | Extend Your Bottom Time Safely
Learn to dive with Enriched Air Nitrox (EANx) and enjoy longer, safer dives. Our Nitrox Diver Specialty Course in Vancouver covers everything from gas analysis and tank labeling to understanding oxygen toxicity and maximizing your no-decompression limits.
Who Is This Course For?
Once thought of as advanced-only, Enriched Air diving is now one of the most popular specialties worldwide. If you enjoy deeper wall dives, longer wreck dives, or simply want to reduce nitrogen loading for safer diving, Nitrox is for you. Many divers also report feeling more refreshed after diving on EANx.
What You Will Learn:
- How to select the correct nitrox blend for each dive
- Depth limits and oxygen exposure management
- Recognizing and preventing oxygen toxicity
- Proper tank analysis, labeling, and sign-out procedures
- Overview of different nitrox mixing and filling systems
Course Description:
You will receive a PADI eLearning code for the knowledge development and exam, to be completed before your in-person class. In class, you will practice gas analysis and labeling, review safety procedures, and see our various nitrox mixing/filling systems in action.
You can also add the EANx specialty to another diving course and complete a dive on nitrox. To reduce plastic use, all certifications are issued digitally. A physical certification card is available upon request for an additional fee at the time of certification.
Course Prerequisites:
- PADI, SDI, or equivalent Open Water Diver certification
- Completed Nitrox eLearning before classroom review
