Llandudno swimming pool - a catalogue of admin errors

[Ian]

I'd be more interested in the precise reasoning behind the closure.  I'm still trying to comprehend why a gym in Llandudno - where the mean temperature is consistently lower in summer and higher in winter than most of the UK - can't simply open the windows and allow members to make informed choices. The only remote possibility I can imagine is the swimming pool's proximity elevates the humidity to dangerous levels, which is why no one is allowed to do anything strenuous outdoors in Hawaii...

Ian, I suggest you send an e-mail to the Swimming Centre Manager and ask him.

Peter.Aldous@conwy.gov.uk

[Ian]

I've done that and will await a response.

I'll get you a calendar so you can keep accurate time on how long it takes!   ZXZ

Did you ask why couldn't they open the window? ££$

[Fester]

I emailed him too.... but we are going to have a long wait,  see below.

Sorry, I am out of the office until Monday 21st July, 2014. Should you require anything urgent, please contact either, Natalie Roberts, Daniel Dunkerley or Olwen Catherall on 01492 575900

Ask Ian to put it on the Calender!

The gym is open again.

and all six windows were open when I passed.

[Ian]

It'll be interesting to learn if the A/C was actually working with the windows open. 

[Bri Roberts]

According to a member of staff I spoke to outside the centre, it seems the AC has been fixed this morning.

[Ian]

Interesting.  If they operated the A/C with open windows that's exactly the same as running your central heating on full with all the doors and windows open.

[Bri Roberts]

I cannot understand why the windows were not closed and locked.

If they are not then some patrons will always open a window in the hope of finding a cool breeze.

The gym windows are east facing and have full-length blinds that can close right across the windows.

Before the gym is closed tonight, all the blinds ought to be closed in order to keep the gym cool for when it reopens tomorrow morning, especially as it is forecast to be another hot day.

Interesting.  If they operated the A/C with open windows that's exactly the same as running your central heating on full with all the doors and windows open.

I think perhaps a better analogy is that of a fridge with the door left open. The most common cause of AC failure is overloading it by leaving a door or window wedged open.

just a quick question, is the pool itself easily accessible by ramp, or does it just have steps?
