      • Staff indicated that they have been having issues with their blue box system (chemical auto feeder) and are unable to lower/maintain the chlorine levels of the pool. It is also important to note that the Inspector's chemical parameter readings via manual water testing do not match the reading on the automated controller. Investigate the issue and ensure that the blue box system is serviced for the safe operation of the pool. Chemical parameters measured by manual water testing are required to match the readings of the automated controller. If the difference between the two tests is significant, the automated controller probes will need to be cleaned/calibrated. **Note: Facility has contacted Automated Aquatics Canada Ltd. to service the system, which is anticipated to occur on July 23, 2025.
