PADI Enriched Air Nitrox Diver
The PADI Enriched Air Diver course (Nitrox) is designed to teach students how to obtain enriched air, how to safely plan enriched air dives, and to consider a variety of other factors involved in enriched air diving. This class is dive computer based. The classroom portion of the course usually only takes an evening.
Ask about combining your Nitrox class with either an Open Water or Advanced Open Water course. It's easy and only takes about an hour!
Take advantage of our private class option to set a custom schedule or receive one on one instruction!
Not sure about your schedule but you want to sign up for a class? Scroll to the bottom of the course listing and select the course marked "UNSCHEDULED." We will enroll you in an unscheduled class and you can contact us when your ready to choose your dates. We'll then move you into the class you chose. You can ignore the dates that appear on the unscheduled class listing.
Course Scheduling Options
Standard, Integrated, or Private?
Enriched Air extends your bottom time and who doesn't want to spend more time underwater! PADI designed the Enriched Air Nitrox course to be a fun and simple way to gain a better understanding of things like oxygen partial pressures, oxygen analyzing, and dive planning with Nitrox. PADI also made it easy for you to obtain this certification and work on these skills in a variety of different classes and situations!
The PADI Enriched Air Nitrox course can be completed in a number of ways. You can register for and take this course as a regularly scheduled stand-alone course or you can integrate an Enriched Air Nitrox course with another dive course such as the PADI Open Water Diver course or the PADI Advanced Open Water Diver course. Integrating the course will add one extra dive to either the Open Water Diver or Advanced Open Water Diver course. Ask your instructor for details.
Have a difficult schedule or would you just prefer to work one-on-one with your Instructor? That's easy enough. We will create a private class for you and your Instructor on a schedule that is convenient for you.
Students are encouraged to do the dives for the course. However, the training dives are optional so you can choose to make this a diving class or a non-diving class!
Paper materials or eLearning Touch?
PADI has known for a long time now that different people learn in different ways
They were the first training agency to offer color reproduction in their print materials, slide carousels, VHS and then DVD videos, powerpoint presentations, web based eLearning, and now digital platform independent eLearning!
PADI's standard crew packs, books, and other supporting printed materials have always been the best in the industry and remain popular today. For the average student these materials are highly effective and deliver a substantial cost savings over digital eLearning Touch materials.
Of course, using the standard materials is kind of like watching a fireworks display in black and white compared to using the eLearning Touch products! PADI's new digital products offer an entirely different experience. The Touch products combine text, graphics, videos, and animations in a fun and easy to use product that is platform independent.
Some of the advantages of eLearning Touch product
- Supports both iOS and Android devices
- Does not expire and updates are free
- Available and useable both online and offline
- Provides feedback on learning through quick quizzes
- Records progress and completion of learning modules
- Multi-media experience is engaging and effective
The eLearning Touch products are not for everyone. They are for those student divers who are looking for a multimedia immersive learning experience. Ask one of our training counselors for more information about eLearning Touch products. You can purchase access codes in the Scubaland Adventures physical or online store, or you can purchase them directly from PADI.com.
Scubaland mixes Nitrox!
Scubaland banks over 3000 cu ft of Enriched Air Nitrox (EANx32)
In 2019 Scubaland brought Nitrox back to Austin, TX in a big way! We invested in a mixing stick and a bank system for Nitrox.
Our system will deliver an EANx32 fill on demand from the banks or a custom fill between EANx21 and EANx40 on direct fill.
Banking and using a mixing system eliminates the need to partial pressure fill EANx mixes. It's faster, easier, safer, and less expensive. Since we no longer partial pressure fill we no longer have to require that tanks are dedicated to Nitrox and Oxygen clean.
We can take any tank - new or used - and convert it to a Nitrox tank in a matter of minutes and then fill it with your preferred mix of EANx. Enriched Air Nitrox divers recognize the benefits of Nitrox and appreciate the convenience that Scubaland's mixing system provides.
Some of the benefits we provide:
- No more waiting for fills
- No more oxygen cleaning (saves $75 a year)
- No more dedicated Nitrox tanks - fill it with what you want, when you want
- No more waiting for the shop to get more oxygen
- No more waiting for a blender to be available
If you want to dive EANx on a regular basis we have everything you need including tanks, stickers, EANx mixes, and oxygen analyzers. We have everything you need to make EANx diving fun, easy, and affordable!
