"Nitrox Makes Me Feel Sooo Good!"
|
|
| We breath Nitrox every day. Nitrox is any combination of
nitrogen-oxygen. The very air we breath is made up of 79% nitrogen and 21% oxygen. Nitrox
is simply a breathing gas that has a lower nitrogen content and a higher oxygen content
(within safe parameters) than air. Decompression obligation is dependent on the quantity
of nitrogen absorbed by the body during a dive, limiting the diver's bottom time. The
cave diver or scuba diver will feel refreshed and totally alert during cave or scuba dives,
will be able to safely increase bottom times, and safely shorten surface intervals between
dives.
|
| The Nitrox Course requires one day - and two dives are required. Certification is through TDI. The Nitrox course may also be combined with other various courses since this course is suitable for both Open Water Divers, as well as with various cave diving courses. Because oxygen content is 40 percent and less, no specially oxygen cleaned equipment is necessary. Curriculum consists of class sessions, labeling procedures for EANX tanks and an understanding of the process for properly analyzing gas mixtures. |
Cost : $150.00 when
combined with other courses.
