Water heating woes continued at the Olympic Pool at the weekend and this time it came down to supply issues with the woodchip used in the complex’s boiler.

Pool management advised regular patrons of the situation by email on Saturday.

They were told the pool would be closed on Sunday and Monday “due to woodchip supply issues, used for heating the water.”

The complex has had to be shut down several times in recent weeks due to issues with the boiler itself.
