Arizona-based company lands a deal to provide the pool cooling system for the Tokyo Olympics by the US Olympic Committee.
June 4, 2021 / / —
The 2020 Summer Olympics is due to take place a year later than when it was initially supposed to happen. Tokyo will be the setting, bringing thousands of athletes together from around the world in a display of sporting brilliance. Turning the attention to the swimming events, an Arizona-based company has been in the news lately for landing an impressive deal to provide the pool cooling system for the Tokyo Olympics.
Glacier Pool Coolers will provide a GPC280 Model Series Pool Cooling System for the US National Team during the event. Team USA’s Olympic and Paralympic swim teams 50-meter pool facility provides a private place to practice between events, and in the lead-up to the whole event itself. The US Olympic Committee required a cooling system to help regulate the pool temperature for the athletes while swimming, and Glacier Pool Coolers has stepped up to provide just that.
Improve Pool Temperature
The importance of a good pool cooling system can't be exaggerated - particularly in a humid climate like Japan. Pools that are too warm will be hard for swim teams to swim in as it requires more effort due to excess sweating. Keeping the pool at a reasonable temperature will allow for optimal performance and training.
It's expected that a lot of swimming will take place over many hours during the Tokyo Olympics. So, every little thing can make a difference to a team's hopes of taking home a medal. Regulating the temperature of a competition pool for the athletes is paramount to optimizing their training and performance.
Save Money On Pool Running Costs
Glacier Pool Coolers provides pool chillers that are electric fan-operated. No Freon, heat exchange, or gas is required to operate them and reduce pool temperatures. The interesting thing about this is that the company has succeeded in manufacturing a product that actively reduces the pool operating costs.
Traditionally, heat pump chillers are used to try and maintain or regulate the water temperature. However, these come with substantial running costs and energy demands. By providing the US Olympic Committee with a pool chilling system, Glacier Pool Coolers hopes it can help to reduce the costs of running and operating the pool during the event.
