Why is it happening now?

The operating systems for our pools are at the end of their life and need to be upgraded.

Due to Council’s upcoming Indoor Aquatic Centre, it doesn’t make financial sense for us to invest in upgrading the lap pool.

Maintaining clean and balanced water in the warm-water therapy pool has become increasingly difficult in recent months due to the age of the systems, which is why we have fast-tracked these two essential upgrades.


The warm-water therapy pool will now be treated

What Will Be the Result?

The warm-water therapy pool will now be treated with magnesium, rather than primarily with chlorine. Here are some of the benefits:

Superior Quality of Water

Magnesium binds to impurities to create crystal-clear, clean water.

Reduced Chemical Use

This system requires fewer harsh chemicals compared to traditional chlorine or salt systems.

Gentle on the Body

Magnesium is far less likely to cause itchy, red eyes or harsh chemical smells, making it ideal for families and individuals with sensitivities. 

Skin & Hair Care

The minerals hydrate and nourish skin, reducing irritation and dryness. It is known to soothe sensitive skin conditions like eczema, psoriasis, and dermatitis.

Muscle & Joint Relief

 Magnesium is absorbed through the skin, helping to alleviate muscle tension, aches, and pain, promoting faster recovery

Reduce Stress & Improve Sleep

The calming effect of the mineral-rich water helps reduce anxiety and stress, while also promoting better sleep.
