EARLIER: The Ararat Fitness Centre indoor pool is currently closed until repair works are completed on technical issues affecting the water temperature.
Ararat Rural City Council has ordered two new circulation pumps, which are expected to arrive and be installed early this week.
"We appreciate that these temperature issues are frustrating, and we are working hard to get the indoor pool operating back to normal as quickly as possible,” council chief executive Tim Harrison said.
People can continue to access Ararat’s 50-metre Olympic outdoor pool, where entry is free for the 2024-2025 summer season.
Updates will be provided via the Ararat Rural City Council and Ararat Fitness Centre social media channels.
