Pool Before Winter Swimming The repainting project is so complete and the entire colour scheme is so entirely different that Gordon Hutchinson, Direcâ€" tor of Recreation, indicates that regular users will hardly recogâ€" nize it for the same building. ‘"The old grey and yellow was very serviceable, but we felt that it was dull and cold in apâ€" pearance so we have chosen three shades of cream and brown for the main pool, which will brighten it up and also provide for a feeling of warmth and comâ€" fort." In addition to the main pool the entire exterior of the buildâ€" ing will be repainted along with the office, guard room, both locker rooms, and all wash rooms and the lobby. Storage rooms, Committe roo m and Therapeutic Pool area will not be repainted but will be thorâ€" oughly washed. The actual pools, floors, lobby, gallery, filter room, and boiler room as well as all of the equipâ€" ment will also be painted by the regular maintenance staff. Many behind â€" the â€" scene â€" jobs are alâ€" so carried out that few people are aware of, but are essential to keep such a large recreation facility operating at top efficienâ€" cy. The actual pools are drained and thoroughly washed with Sulâ€" phuric acid every year. This is followed by two coats of special pool paint. Both large filters must be completely dismantled, scrubbed, and the elements soakâ€" ed in acid. Dozens of filtration and heating valves must be takâ€" en apart and repacked. Pumps and motors must be lubricated and the bearings repacked. Pre â€" coat pots, slurry feeders, chlorâ€" inators, heater fans, . exhaust fans and many other complicated pieces of equipment require disâ€" mantling, cleaning, adjustments and lubrication to keep the m functioning.
