The upgrades to Radium Hot Springs include state-of-the-art mechanical and electrical systems, utilizing energy-efficient technologies that harness geothermal energy from the springs. Enhanced resilience to climate change was a core goal of the project, as improvements to the cold pool now protect it from flooding, contributing to both visitor safety and environmental sustainability. The addition of culverts beneath the Aquacourt protects its foundation from erosion and helps preserve nearby aquatic ecosystems.

This extensive renovation underscores the Government of Canada's commitment to preserving national treasures, enhancing the tourism sector, and supporting local communities. By modernizing the Radium Hot Springs Aquacourt, a designated Classified Federal Heritage Building, Canada ensures that future generations can continue to enjoy this unique natural retreat. The integration of green technologies and climate-resilient infrastructure not only ensures visitor safety but also strengthens conservation efforts, protecting both natural habitats and built heritage for years to come.
