Havelock North pool remains closed after gas leak

The Havelock North Village Pool remains closed while Hastings District Council investigates a gas leak which led to the pool being evacuated yesterday.

The council says initial information indicates there was a minor chlorine leak originating from the chlorine gas cylinder held on-site.

“The leak has been rectified, however the Village Pool will remain closed while the council completes a systems safety check and undertakes any required steps to ensure the safety of the facility before re-opening,” the council says.

It is not known yet how long the investigation will take.
