If the swimming pool is unheated and the pool hall has no mechanical cooling (for dehumidification), it can be included in a dry sports and leisure facility benchmark category 14.

For a fitness and health centre that includes a swimming pool, the swimming pool area, associated wet changing and plant areas should be benchmarked separately as swimming pool centre (benchmark category 12).
