The community in which I live is planning a multi million dollar aquatic centre comprising among other pools 2 x 25 m pools but no 50m pool. I intend lobbying for a 50m pool but am I being selfish ? What are some compelling reasons for a 50m pool ? Thanks in advance.:confused:

If there is only one tank and the facility relies on swim lessons, water exercise classes, lap swimmers, general recreation etc for a goodly portion of its cash-flow, you can bet there will be a groundswell of popular support for keeping the temp at 84 or higher.
I swim in a pool where "water aerobics rules", and it is definitely 84 or HIGHER. They actually turned the heat on in the pool on the first day of summer (note that I live in Florida), because we'd had a lot of rain and the water had actually dropped to a temperature that was just a tad refreshing. The pool aerators, which can cool the water down, are almost never run - well, maybe if the pool temperature gets up to 86 and the weather forecast is sunny and hot.
