The Puerto de la Cruz City Council has announced the reopening of the largest pool at the Costa Martiánez Tourist Complex this Thursday. Ten months after its closure, it reopens to the public following the most significant renovation in its history with the complete refurbishment of its machinery room, which includes a substantial improvement in terms of sustainability and efficiency for filling and draining the Lake, the main pool of the Complex.
Mayor Marco González expressed gratitude for the work of the municipal technicians in overcoming the complexities of such a comprehensive project, “as this is the first complete renovation of a facility that is 46 years old and has cost a total of over 1.3 million Euros, the largest exclusively municipal investment in history”.
“It has been a challenging few months for the hand in hand with the winning company to tackle the administrative and construction difficulties that are common in such large projects, in order to announce that this magnificent work by César Manrique will be back in full operation this Thursday, a source of pride for all the locals,” he added.
Furthermore, the mayor highlighted the efforts of the Complex staff, who “have always kept part of their facilities open, “with significant attendance figures that have ensured consistent revenue, reinvesting those earnings to continuously maintain the Complex without any reduction in the services provided inside.”
With these works, which have also included a new underwater water filtration system, a significant leap in sustainability has been achieved in municipal facilities. “With this new machinery room, we improve energy efficiency for filling and draining the Lake’s main pool, which has a volume equivalent to ten Olympic pools, while also considerably reducing the duration of these actions to enhance the user experience,” highlighted councillor Roberto Medina in charge of the Complex.
“Another advancement in operations is the incorporation of home automation in the municipal installation, which can be programmed in advance to take advantage of tidal periods for filling the Lake,” explained the councillor, emphasizing that these technological innovations also aim to facilitate the work of the Complex’s operatives.
