The Access Communications Water Park is scheduled for shutdown maintenance and will be closed from July 28 through October 2 while work is completed.
The Water Park undergoes a planned shutdown every two years to allow for essential maintenance, deep cleaning, and to ensure the facility continues to meet Public Health requirements. Regular closures allow staff to perform tile repair and replacement, service pumps and related mechanical equipment, and complete necessary repairs that cannot be done while the pools are full of water.
During this year's shutdown, we will be completing a major filtration system replacement project. The existing filters, which have been in place for about 20 years, have reached the end of their lifespan and must be replaced to maintain proper water quality. These filters play a crucial role in removing debris such as skin cells, hair, and other particles from the nearly 1,000,000 liters of water in the park.
Additionally, the pool is transitioning from an ozone-based water treatment system — now outdated and difficult to maintain — to a more modern ultra-violet (UV) filtration system. This change aligns with industry trends and will help ensure efficient water sanitation while managing operational costs.
While these upgrades are necessary, they also highlight the importance of regular maintenance shutdowns to keep the water park safe, clean, and fully operational for the community.
