Maintenance on a pool in modern day is walk out start clean program from IPhone drop C3PO pool robot (name optional) sit, enjoy a book, have a cold drink and 90 minutes later pool sides, bottom, and steps completely clean of all debris. Control pool completely from IPhone.

Every Monday take water sample for free testing while out for lunch. 3 minutes to drop in chemical. Done. Heating, chemical, on salt water for 18x32’ is $36 on month.

We also have Chillers for summers that you won’t find in any public pool in TV. Even in Winter with liquid cover we rarely drop more than 4 degrees. Swim 4 miles a day year round, anytime I choose. I love peace and quiet and midnight swims.

We have weekly dine arounds at homes and restaurants with 4-40 friends

Not sure why everyone say pools are work. Maybe just not up on todays pool maintenance

Oh we mow our own lawn with ECO mower, blower, trimmer. We have WIFI vacuum /mop robot for inside (R2D2) along with WiFi washer/dryer, and range. Life is no longer a chore or requires cleaning services that we used while working.
Having to remove solar panels, then reinstall, when roof needs repaired or replaced, constant monitoring of chemicals, leaves, cleaning large lanai (especially after heavy rain or wind storm), covering when toddlers are around. No thanks! We sold our home with pool and will not get another.
