just what happens in June, when the pool at the KMCSC is closed. The answer is that the whole facility gets a really good clean. To comply with relevant legislation, the pool must be completely scrubbed down annually. All the contact surfaces are sterilized and any routine maintenance work is completed while access can be achieved. A good example is the exchange of all the high-powered overhead lights. These cannot be accessed while the pool is in use, so the likelihood of failure is reduced by an early change of lamps. All the stainless steel fixtures are removed and transported to an off-site facility for deep cleaning. The maintenance staff, whom we all recognise and respect for their excellent work, put in long hours going over all the pool margins, cleaning them meticulously. A small team of lifeguards assists with this work. When we regain access to the facility in July, just have a look at the pool surrounds and see how very clean and well cared for they are. And when you see the maintenance staff - consider congratulating them on a job very well done - year round...
