Solution Report: YMCA Pool Renovation – Georgia

Category: YMCA Pool Renovation

Location: Brunswick, GA

Completion Date: 07/15/2024

Profile:

A YMCA pool in Georgia recently underwent a major renovation that included removing the existing PVC membrane and installing a new one. This 15,000 square foot pool required careful planning and precise installation due to high temperatures and a continuous flow of groundwater throughout the project. Despite these challenging conditions, the RenoSys team delivered a high quality renovation that will serve the YMCA community for years to come.

The crew’s dedication ensured that the installation met RenoSys standards for durability, appearance, and long term watertight performance.

Problems:

The project presented several challenges, starting with the size of the pool. Managing a 15,000 square foot installation required detailed coordination, especially while working in high heat that affected welding conditions.

A persistent flow of groundwater created additional complications. Before the new membrane could be installed, the team had to manage water infiltration around the structure to ensure a clean and stable surface. Groundwater can interfere with adhesion and prep work, so each step required careful timing and site management.

High temperatures also added difficulty, as hot weather can influence the handling and welding of PVC material. The team paced the installation to maintain quality while working safely in demanding conditions.

Despite these challenges, the RenoSys crew completed the renovation on schedule and delivered a watertight, durable finish that restored the YMCA pool to reliable operation.
