Keswick Leisure Pool improvements
Allerdale Borough Council in partnership with Carlisle
Leisure Limited is carrying out a number of improvements
at the Allerdale leisure facilities. These improvements are funded
by business rates relief which Carlisle Leisure Limited are
able to achieve due to having charitable trust status.
The use of these funds are jointly agreed by the partners
and to date have enabled a number of improvements to be made which
improve the quality.
Fitness suite
New equipment has been installed in the fitness suite.
Energy Efficiency
Carlisle Leisure Limited has recently carried out a thernal
survey of the leisure centre to identify areas where heat is lost
and has installed additional insulation to improve energy
efficiency.
Pool covers
New pool covers have been fitted to save energy by reducing heat
loss from the pool when the facility is closed,
Energy efficiency
A new Building Management System (BMS) has recently been
installed at the leisure pool to enable the heating and ventilation
system to be controlled more efficiently than the original system
which was 20 years old. Linked to a more efficient boiler the new
system is already reducing consumption of electricity and gas,
while maintaining a comfortable environment for customers.
