The unforeseen circumstances was a leak in the rubber seal in the flange connecting two underground gas pipes that were installed as part of the original building in 1985. For health & safety reasons, the Gas Company were notified who immediately turned off the gas supply to the complex. We then had to source a company licenced to work on gas supply pipes who can do the repairs, test the result and certify that the pipes are safe.

We contacted 15 such companies, 3 replied, 2 could not start within a reasonable time, so we are left with one, who has now installed new underground piping and a valve.

They will resume on Monday fitting the new pipes to the outside of the building and connecting them to the boilers on the 3rd floor. This work should be completed by next weekend.

So we hope you can appreciate that this incident is out of our control and thankfully the vast majority of our members understand our helpless position.

For your information, the steam & sauna rooms are available in the main complex and at the main pool, in addition to a gym and hot showers.
