Community
Improve Indoor Air Quality
Description of Action: 
In 2021 Rutherford Swim added an air sanitizers system known as bio-ox. Which reduces the amount of chloramines that are in the air. This has made the pool environment much easier to breathe. Also in 2021, Rutherford Swim received a grant from the state which we utilized to add a new air duct air handler system. This system constantly pulls in fresh air from the outside on to the pool deck.
