The Wellington Regional Aquatic Centre (WRAC) main pool is to close from Monday 5 July until early September for its five-yearly maintenance.
Work includes replacing the skylights, repairing damaged tiles in the pool, replacing sealant joints, and servicing the pool water circulation system pumps, valves and heating system.
Wellington City Council does work on all its indoor pools every five years as part of a planned scheduled maintenance programme. WRAC was due for maintenance last year, but work was deferred by one year due to post-COVID-19 lockdown demand, and the one year deferral of the Tokyo Olympics.
