Committee approves replacing splash-pad heat exchanger after failure

Strawberry Point Pool Committee · August 6, 2025

Summary

Staff reported a failed heat exchanger on the splash pad and advised replacing the full unit; the committee agreed to replace it (estimated cost discussed: $2,000 for part vs. $4,000 for full replacement), with installation expected this week.

Staff told the committee the heat exchanger on the splash pad failed and presented cost options: about $2,000 to replace the part or roughly $4,000 to replace the whole exchanger. The staff recommendation was to replace the entire unit and installation was expected to occur sometime this week; "so we decided to just replace the whole thing," staff said.

A member asked whether the splash pad had been out of commission; staff replied the shallow water remained warm, so it was still open despite the heater problem but repairs could require temporary closure for safety when contractors cycle very hot water through the system. The committee accepted the staff recommendation and expects the unit to be installed promptly.
