Recently we have had discussions concerning the temperature of the Schooner Bay Condo Pool. The Management Company was contacted and directed the Board to a web site by AqualCal.

The following is from their web page concerning pool temperature:

What Temperature is Too Warm for a Commercial Pool?

Pools with water that is too warm can be harmful to swimmers in a number of ways; dehydration, muscle cramps and overheating of the body are just some of the complications athletes can suffer from when the water is too warm. Water chemistry is another factor that comes into play when the water is too warm; it is very problematic to treat warm water with chemicals. Bacteria, algae and other organisms thrive under warm water conditions; this is obviously harmful not just for athletes but the general public in a commercial swimming pool, for competitive pools the water should be no higher than 82°F (28°C), for recreational pools the recommended maximum is 84°F (29°C).

The following are questions on the web site.
