Well, then we're back to the weather thing.

So they installed refrigeration under this pond and now refuse to operate it? Talk about sunk costs...

Nice to see that this posh swanky place is getting proper posh swanky appliances. When I first visited a unit at Eau du Soleil, I was shocked to see the cheapest Whirlpool appliances installed by the builder. Sure, they were 'stainless', but only if your idea of stainless is 20% of the surface...
