Concord Community Pool To Reopen Monday

by city staff

The Concord Community Pool, which has been closed since Dec. 15 for energy efficiency upgrades, will reopen on Monday, Jan. 9.

Lap swim hours on Monday will be 6 a.m. to 1 p.m.

Light refreshments will be served to celebrate the reopening.

Regular winter pool hours are Monday, Wednesday and Friday, 6 a.m. to 1 p.m.,

Tuesday and Thursday 7 a.m. to 1 p.m.; Saturday and Sunday 10 a.m. to noon.  

The upgrades included the installation of new high-efficiency heaters and retrofitting the pool’s circulation pump.

During times when the pool is in use, the pump will operate at required flow rates; when the pool is closed, the pump will operate at 80 percent, saving energy.

The retrofit includes a redundant pump and motor that will allow for maintenance to be done on an annual basis without having to shut down the pool. 

The pool is located in Concord Community Park on Cowell Road between Hale Drive and St. Francis Drive. For more information, call the pool at (925) 671-3480.
