The Air Force needs a small business to repair a kiddie pool at Columbus AFB.
Key Details
The Air Force needs a small business to repair a kiddie pool at Columbus AFB. The kiddie pool has developed leaks at its perimeter, where the fiberglass of the kiddie pool basin meets the concrete deck. The existing skimmer is undersized, forcing staff to significantly lower the water supply to the jets and sprayers to ensure the kiddie pool does not overfill. The deck drainage channel separating the kiddie pool from the nearby patio is also undersized.
