H2Oh!

The H2Oh! is an indoor leisure pool at Schelthofer Straße 80 in Tönisvorst, operated by the municipal utility NEW as one of its group of baths in the Mönchengladbach, Viersen and Grevenbroich area. The pools are numbered in series. Becken 1 is the sports pool, 1.80 m to 3.80 m deep with a water area of 256.25 m², described as a 25-metre pool with six lanes and starting blocks. Becken 2 is the leisure pool, 1.00 m to 1.35 m deep with a water area of 210 m², and is indoors. Becken 3 is the teaching pool, 0.64 m to 0.90 m deep with 52 m² of water. Becken 4 is the paddling pool, 0.14 m to 0.42 m deep with 36 m², fitted with an elephant slide and water spouts; this pool is described as extra-warm. No water temperature figure is published for any of the four.

The principal attraction is a tube slide the operator states as 60 metres long. The leisure area carries massage jets and whirl loungers, and there is a lawn outside for sunbathing. The diving facility has a 1-metre and a 3-metre springboard.

There is no sauna and no thermal or brine water. The relaxation area consists only of the massage jets and the whirl loungers. Access is restricted at set times: from 16:30 on Mondays the bath is reserved for clubs and closed to the public, except in the school holidays when it is open from 09:30 to 21:30; school swimming occupies the teaching and sports pools on weekdays from 08:00 to 14:00, with at least two lanes of the sports pool kept free for the public; parts of the leisure pool are unavailable on Tuesdays and Wednesdays outside the school holidays, and further sections are taken by clubs on Thursday from 16:00 to 20:30 and Friday from 17:00 to 19:30. The H2Oh! was built as a Spaßschwimmbad on the site of the town's demolished older indoor pool, with a combined heat and power plant that also supplied district heat to the Pipper housing area.
