GSAC pool to close for maintenance from Monday

The Goonellabah Sports & Aquatic Centre (GSAC) pool will be closed from Monday, 27 September to undergo essential maintenance works.

It is expected that the pool will re-open to the public on Saturday, 2 October.

Lismore City Council’s Manager of Liveable and Active Communities Tony Duffy said it is a standard service procedure that occurs during the life of the filters.

“The maintenance works includes replacing all the filter media to ensure the pool stays clean for longer,” he said.

“The pool filters replacement is commonly undertaken because the filter media degrades over time, reducing the efficiency of the filters.

“Due to the recent lockdowns and border closures, the timeframe for these works had to occur as soon as possible.”

There will be some disruptions to pool activities with the Learn to Swim Holiday Intensives Clinic moved to the Lismore Memorial Baths for the second week of the school holidays.

GSAC staff will update participants of the Aqua and Swimfit schedules during this period. The Switch Fitness Gym will not be affected during this time.
