Water quality

We’re making sure that we provide clean, safe facilities that meet health standards. Find out how:

  • Water in each pool is partially changed each day to ensure its quality.
  • Water is analyzed every two weeks in outdoor pools and every four weeks in indoor pools.
  • Tests are conducted at least once every three hours to ensure that water is clean enough to swim in. 

These tests are compliant with standards issued by the Ministère du Développement durable, de l’Environnement, de la Faune et des Parcs.
