Greetings: (To any experts or proffesionals ?)
I know this may be a bit weird or off topic but any way.........We live at a condo with a "in common pool", our board of directors have made a rule that the condo pool be kept at no more then 76 degrees.... The swimmers can live with this and once in it's not a problem...but.....we have a few dozen folks in there 60's to 90's that use the pool for exercise, are non swimmers or close to that and are just trying to beat the aches and pains of age.
I would like to point this out to the board and would like to be able to sight expert opinion, recommandations, history....whatever to make a sensible case for the higher temperture (The board is not being "mean hearted",they are thinking to keep expences down, but,a board is board and you better be prepared to defend your augarguement!!)

Actually 76 is a little chilly even for some of us swimmers. I personnally like it colder but there are others younger than me with no fat that can't take the cold either. 78-82 is the ideal range, for me I like 78-80.
For those with joint issues they might want to use a wet suit or long lycra suit to help with the cold.
