Ji'nan Education Bureau staff also said that for a lot of primary and secondary schools, the basic sports facilities are relatively lack, the cost of the swimming pool is too high, it is difficult for the school to undertake. "Our swimming pool has to circulate for 24 hours. When it's cool, we need to pour hot water into it." The head of a swimming pool in Jiefang Road said the Aquatorium was used to disinfect the water. In order to ensure the water quality, it was also a part of the water when the water was changed and then added to the new water.
according to the introduction, a standard swimming pool is 50 meters long and 21 meters wide, with a water depth of 1.5 meters, and it needs 1575 tons of water for a change of water and seven thousand or eight thousand yuan for light and water charges.
