Natatorium Program Area Manager Monica Martin provided the following statement to Denton Record-Chronicle:
"The Natatorium is currently closed for repairs to the HVAC system which regulates the temperature, humidity, and air quality of the pool deck. Technicians installed 4 of 6 new fans on Monday, June 19 with the other 2 fans on schedule to install on June 20. Additional repairs have taken place over the last week to the system. This closure for maintenance is the first phase in replacing essential components to the Nat system with future repairs estimated for late summer or early fall, dependent upon lead time for parts.Â
"Staff will have a reopening schedule posted online and to members once repairs are completed."
