The Gwachon National Sports Center, operated by the Gwachon City Corporation, has implemented eco-friendly facilities in its newly completed second indoor gym to reduce air pollutants and enhance energy efficiency.
According to the corporation, the new gym features a low nitrogen oxide (Low NOx) boiler designed to decrease nitrogen oxide (NOx) emissions. Additionally, the outdoor units of the air conditioning system are equipped with devices to reduce air pollutant emissions.
High-efficiency equipment has also been introduced to lower electricity and energy consumption. This includes LED lighting and energy-efficient certified equipment for air conditioning, boilers, and other key systems.
The corporation believes that these high-efficiency facilities will help reduce energy consumption during the operation of the sports center and contribute to long-term savings on facility operating costs.
This initiative aims to improve the energy efficiency of public sports facilities used by citizens while also considering air quality improvements.
Local residents have responded positively to the environmentally friendly and energy-efficient installations. One citizen, Kim, stated, “As a facility used by many citizens, the indoor environment and facility management are important. I hope there will be ongoing maintenance to ensure a comfortable experience in this new facility.”
A corporation official added, “We are actively introducing eco-friendly facilities in public buildings, including the second indoor gym, and we will strive to create sports facilities that citizens can use comfortably and safely.”
