Nitrox
/ Tri-Mix
Enriched Air (EANX)
Nitrox is
diving's latest tool in the struggle to safely
extend the no decompression time or bottom
time. Nitrox can substantially lengthen your
no decompression times over the standard air
mixture diving. Our nitrox course is designed
to teach safe diving procedures for no decompression
diving with enriched air. Diving with nitrox
can reduce risk of decompression sickness
due to the lowered percentages of nitrogen
contained in the air mixture. The advantages
of using nitrox far outweigh the disadvantages,
which are the potential for oxygen toxicity
and slightly decreased maximum depths. Special
considerations must be given to tanks and
equipment used with nitrox.
