Aquatic centres are typically large facilities with types of equipment that use a lot of energy. For example, several of these centres use energy-intensive equipment to filter, circulate, and disinfect water to maintain optimal operating temperature and reduce turbidity from dirt and other pollutants. Due to these factors, aquatic centres have generally had difficulty reducing carbon footprint and eventually achieving Net Zero.
Challenges Faced by Aquatic Centres
Aside from these challenges, other issues like operating costs, equipment breakdowns, maintenance costs, and more have also been major stumbling blocks for aquatic centres. These issues have hampered their sustainability initiatives and have also had a significant dent in their profitability.
Our Tailored Solutions for Aquatic Centres
Our multi-disciplined engineering team are highly-qualified experts with first hand experience in implementing energy saving solutions in Aquatic and Recreational Centres. The Ecosave team comprises Certified Energy Efficiency Leaders/Specialists (CEEL/CEES), Certified Energy Managers (CEM), mechanical engineers, lighting specialists, Pool Plant and HVAC specialists. We combine our in-house expertise with specialist sub-contractors to design and implement custom solutions to meet your requirements.
In our detailed site assessments, we investigate every possible Energy Conservation Measure (ECM) – in every facility and room – that may be realistically implemented in an Aquatic or Sports and Recreational Centre. ECM opportunities will vary from site to site, but some of the common types of ECMs Ecosave has successfully implemented in the past include:
