About
The Swimming & Diving Pool, located at the Cohon University Center at Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh, PA, is an 8-lane, 25-yard competitive aquatic facility that also includes a diving well. It serves as a central hub for university recreation, training, and competitive swimming and diving events.
The pool temperature is consistently maintained at 80 degrees Fahrenheit (approximately 26.6 degrees Celsius).
What are people saying (AI review summary)? The pool facilities are highly praised for their cleanliness, especially with current COVID restrictions, and the water temperature is consistently ideal. Natural light and resources for all swimmer levels are appreciated. Features include two pools, three diving boards, and a steam room. A hot tub is available but reportedly often closed due to chemical imbalances. It's noted to be less crowded currently, particularly around midday, and offers towel and locker services for CMU students. The pool is considered the best in the area and is private to CMU.

With current covid restrictions and policies in place, I found the pool and locker room area very clean and pretty empty. (I came in at 12:30 pm)The cleaning staff comes in to clean everything in between pool hours. Beyond that, the actual pool area is perfect. The water is always the right temperature for a good swim, and I've always loved the natural light that comes in from the windows :-) There's options and resources available for swimmers of all levels, and you can always ask the lifeguards if you need anything. Just, don't forget to take your mask off before you jump in like me. It's not ideal if you like breathing.

Such clean pools - 2 of them. 3 diving boards and a hot tub; although, I'm told the hot tub is not open often do to the chemical imbalance that it often has... that makes it sound like it is depressed!?!

The pool is great and you can rent a towel and locker services of you're a CMU student!

Great for CMU students. Right now it is not that packed and hoping it is like that during the semester. Plus there's a steam room!
