I had one in SoCal for several years. It's kind of like the beach when you live there. You use it a bunch the first summer, half as much the next summer, half as much of that again the third summer and by year 5, you don't even look at it. You just pay the premium for installing it and then keeping it running. About year 5 you're due for a plaster acid washing on top of all that.
I totally disagree. We had our pool built 7 1/2 years ago and use it almost daily. It was fantastic during the pandemic. I would not live here without my own pool. Nothing beats floating in the dark looking up at the stars.
