Viega press fitting system used for Melville Aquatic Centre
Largest solar pool heating system in southern hemisphere

With over 1000 swimmers visiting each day, including children learning to swim, teenagers and families enjoying their leisure time and fitness fanatics carving up the fast lane, the Melville Aquatic Fitness Centre (LeisureFit Booragoon) in Perth, Western Australia, is an intrinsic part of the community.

The centre boasts a fantastic array of facilities, including a health club, wellness studio, 25-metre leisure pool with beach access, a spa, sauna and steam room, a group training studio and a 50-metre 8-lane swimming pool.

The large lap pool has a capacity of one and a half million litres, which is heated to 27 degrees; and with a 10-year-old gas pool heating system this was costing the City of Melville thousands of dollars a month to maintain and run. So in June 2014 the centre was fitted with the second largest solar pool heating system in the southern hemisphere.

The 160 panel evacuated tube (EVT) system, which was put in place to support the gas system, took nine weeks to be installed on the roof of the centre.
