As soon as you turn the last valve, back track to the double doors you came from at the start. I did not turn on the pool lights when going for this achievement. As of right now the Achievement may be bugged or the description is wrong and it should be under 4 or possibly 2 minutes. Either way I got this to unlock.

Below is a quote from the steam guide that I followed.

"Then, once you turn the last valve and activate the sprinkler system, you'll get the chance to earn A Fast Swim achievement for exiting the pool after activating the sprinkler in under 7:00 minutes. Now here I have to mention that I've done it twice in under 5:00 minutes (from 4 to 5) and it didn't drop for me meaning it's either "under 4:00 minutes" and the description is wrong OR it's bugged atm OR the countdown starts when the lights get activated as well, I have no idea..."

I will say that attempting to do it while turning the pool lights on, never popped the achievement.

Either the 7-minute timer starts earlier, or you only have 2 minutes to exit the pool hall. I tried many times, but it finally popped when I loaded the auto-save from where you pick up the valve wheel.

Yes I attempted on an autosave placing the final valve. Which is where you pick up the last valve. So it's basically down to time. Which I cannot control. the devs would have to fix the description.

Can also confirm now! Start at the pick-up-the-valve save, and BOOK IT. figure out where the water is, if you have to crouch for more than a second or two, just restart (except going across the planks - but even then, fast crouch the whole thing if possible).

I’ve tried this so many times now. Going to give up, annoying as it’s the last achievement I have.
