Waterwise Recognition for Boyup Brook Swimming Pool

Boyup Brook Swimming Pool has been recognised for achieving its first waterwise endorsement at the Annual Waterwise Recognition event held on 7th May 2025.

Boyup Brook Swimming Pool Manager, Tara Reid has been working hard over the last year to achieve this fabulous endorsement. A water audit was conducted with the Water Corporation which identified leaking taps and water sources that didn’t have water saving devices. The Water Corporation generously upgraded the taps, toilet cisterns and shower heads to water saving devices. The patrons of the swimming pool also contributed to the reduction of water by having shorter showers.

The swimming pool meter had a water logger installed which reports on daily water usage and identifies high flow rates. Using this information, leaks were identified and repaired which included replacing an aging and faulty solar hot water system with a water and energy efficient heat pump. The water logger also calculates the water usage for pool gardens, backwashes and high patron usage.

Becoming a Water Wise Aquatic Centre is extremely import when you consider the reduction of rainfall in our Shire and region. The Shire is proud to be part of the Waterwise program as it gives us a better understanding of water usages and ensures the efficient running of the swimming pool.

Well done Tara on this amazing achievement.
