The current chillers and compressors, installed in 2005, have exceeded their expected lifespan of 12 to 15 years according to the Town of Tisdale. The cooling tower, original to the building since 1980, has failed twice (in 2002 and 2015), and shows significant corrosion and deterioration of its concrete base. These conditions increase the risk of freeze-ups, especially during cold and windy weather, the Town of Tisdale said in a social media post. Both the refrigeration plant and cooling tower are located in difficult-to-access areas of the facility, making repairs and replacements complex and costly the town said.
