| Hot tub caused burns
Maple Ridge resident Ken Brassington said he suffered burns and hair loss after a trip to the leisure centre's hot tub.When he got into the hot tub, he noticed his eyes started burning. He had to lean back to avoid the fumes.After his swim, he said he went to shower and noticed his shorts were bleached.Later, Brassington Tubtrugs went home and said he noticed the hair on his legs and on the lower half of his body was balled up. He took another shower at home and said some of his body hair starting falling out. The hair that didn't fall out had turned blond.Brassington called the pool. They asked him to fill out an incident report and then go to emergency where they checked to make sure his breathing was normal, he said.Brassington's respiratory system Tubtrugs was fine, but he said he spent several uncomfortable days suffering from what seemed to be side effects from chlorine in the hot tub.Brassington said he had sleepless nights and ended up wearing sweatpants on his job as a mailman, since his jeans irritated his skin. He said his skin was itchy and his hair continued to fall out for days after the incident."It's like a bad sunburn -it takes four or five days [to heal],Tubs," Brassington said.He is nervous about going back to the pool after what happened.More than a week later, Brassington said his skin was still itchy.Recreation manager Christa Balatti Tubtrugs said the hot tub was shut down after the incident, and a thorough investigation is taking place into what happened. "Definitely, safety is our No. 1 priority," Balatti said.Policies and procedures are also being reviewed, she said.The chlorine is added using an automated system, but manual checks are being done every day on the water, Balatti said.
