Upcoming HVAC improvement works 🚧👷

We are undertaking two important HVAC improvement projects at PARC from Monday 5 October to Friday 16 October.

Rust Air Duct Rectification Works
We`ll be replacing sections of our air ducting that supplies fresh air to our Group Exercise studios. A section of the corridor near the studios will be temporarily closed, with some lockers unavailable while works are underway. Access to Studio 2 and all Group Exercise classes will remain available as normal, with no classes impacted.

Warm Water Pool Accessible Changeroom Ventilation Upgrade
The accessible changerooms in Warm Water Pool area will be temporarily closed from Monday 5 – Friday 16 October as we install additional fresh air supply systems to both. Alternative accessible change facilities are available in the Family Change area as well as upstairs, which is accessible via the elevator. Our team will be on hand to assist members who require support.

Thank you for your patience and support as we invest in your PARC experience.
