Matamata Pool Covered Swimming Pool: Long-Term Weather Protection for Year-Round Use.
Sport Waikato sought a permanent solution to address challenges at the Swim Zone Matamata Leisure Pools facility after the removal of the existing indoor pool enclosure. To maintain year-round swimming access, NZ Temporary Structures installed a custom-engineered covered pool structure, ensuring thermal efficiency, durability, and natural light transmission.
Project Overview
Location: Matamata Swim Zone, Waikato
Structure Dimensions: 15.00m x 30.00m x 3.00m
Primary Use: Long-term covered swimming pool facility
Design Life: 25 years
Environmental Adaptation: Engineered to withstand high humidity conditions
Key Features & Customisations
Tailored Design for High-Humidity Conditions – Constructed with materials that resist moisture, corrosion, and temperature fluctuations, ensuring long-term structural integrity.
Insulated Wall Panels – Provide energy efficiency and temperature control, reducing heat loss while maintaining a comfortable swimming environment.
Thermo Roof Cover (Translucent PVC) – Allows natural daylight transmission, reducing the need for artificial lighting while providing UV protection and a thermal barrier.
Project Success
This lightweight swimming pool cover structure provided Matamata Swim Zone with a cost-effective, durable, and energy-efficient solution for all-season swimming operations. The combination of insulated walls and a translucent roof ensures comfortable water temperatures and minimal energy costs, making it a sustainable and practical alternative to traditional pool enclosures.
The Matamata Pool Covered Swimming Pool Project highlights how modularl buildings can be customised for recreational, sports, and community applications, offering long-term weather protection, structural resilience, and energy efficiency.
