Natatoriums, or indoor pool facilities, are complex environments that require careful humidity control. These spaces demand a delicate balance between swimmer comfort, spectator comfort, building envelope protection, and energy efficiency. Whether in schools, universities, sports complexes, or recreational facilities, selecting the right HVAC solution is crucial for overcoming the unique challenges of indoor pool environments.
Precise Temperature & Humidity Control
Our systems feature corrosion-resistant space temperature and humidity sensors designed to withstand the corrosive environments typical of indoor pools. The innovative, polymer-coated modulating hot gas reheat system ensures optimal humidity control without compromising energy efficiency. High latent loads are expertly managed to prevent overcooling, maintaining ideal conditions for both swimmers and spectators.
Occupant Comfort
AAON systems maintain high relative humidity to enhance swimmer comfort and reduce pool evaporation rates. By warming the air above pool temperature, emerging swimmers remain comfortable, eliminating the chilling effect often experienced when leaving the water. At the same time, our advanced humidity control systems preserve comfort for non-swimmers, striking the perfect balance for all occupants.

Equipment Sizing and Load Estimation
Designing HVAC systems for natatoriums requires careful consideration of factors such as pool size, location, occupancy, and environmental conditions to ensure optimal performance. Determining the correct equipment sizing, taking into account local codes and the unique demands of indoor pool environments, will ensure your system is configured for peak performance and long-term reliability.
