Description
The London Borough of Tower Hamlets (LBTH) Council is undertaking a formal tender process for the complete replacement of a hydrotherapy pool at a school for severely disabled children. The goal of this project is to deliver a modern, fully accessible, hydrotherapy pool that will effectively support the therapeutic needs of the students.
This project involves the complete replacement of the hydrotherapy pool, addressing issues such as leaks and the current condition of the pool. A detailed structural survey will be required during the works, along with associated integrity testing. The design will prioritise ease of access for ongoing maintenance to ensure long-term operational efficiency and to reduce costs throughout the asset's lifecycle.
The scope of the project also includes the installation of new systems and upgrades to existing systems, including lighting, sensory equipment, underwater lighting, ventilation, heating, and drainage, to enhance functionality and improve reliability. The pool area will be fully redecorated to improve its appearance while considering the environmental humidity.
Furthermore, the project will involve the complete replacement and reconfiguration of all plant room equipment, along with the associated mechanical and electrical plant and equipment.
