If you are at all handy, you can save a good chunk of change maintaining yourself. You can take water sample to T&D locations free of charge and they tell you what chemicals are needed to keep ph and chlorine levels in line. Weekly you should brush tile water lines and vacuum. If you were to get an algae bloom T&D has product to add that cleans it up quick. Monthly need to clean filter, which is just hosing it with water. My estimate of doing self maintenance is annual savings of roughly $900.
