By diving with enriched air rather than standard air you can extend your no decompression limits. This means more time underwater. For example, if you dive to15 metres/50 feet on air, your no decompression limit is 80 minutes. But, diving onEANx36 gets you 220 minutes of no decompression time - an increase of 140 minutes.Plus, the Enriched Air Diver course is the only course that allows students to beenrolled in another course simultaneously. In other words a student enrolled in the PADI Advanced Open Water Diver Course, for example, can also take the PADI Enriched AirDiver Course at the same time.
