At Killingworth Lakeside Leisure Centre, Independent water treatment plants are provided, one for the 25m pool and one for the learner pool. This facilitates independent temperature control in each pool, but it also means that should one pool suffer from an accidental faecal release, then this pool can be attended to while the other pool remains in operation.
A dedicated water treatment plantroom is provided for the two pools, located adjacent to the poolside and with access direct to the outside. Provision has been made for pool filter vessel removal when the project requires refurbishment. A submerged pump pit is provided for hydraulic efficiency and all pumps are controlled by variable speed drives. Further controls and instrumentation provide the operator with full flexibility in terms of plant operation. This is an important element of sustainability.
