Those who play golf can slather on the sunscreen, wear a visor, spend time under the roof of their golf cart, but when you're out in the water, the sunscreen doesn't stay on, and you're at risk of sun exposure. The sun exposure is year round.
As an aside, I heard from a good source(an employee), one of the reasons that MVP didn't put in the pool. That reason had to do with "old people peeing in the pool."
The costs for heating an indoor pool are going to be less than heating those outdoor pools. Maybe the savings in heating costs would offset any increase in maintenance costs? Just wondering.

Love2swim: when I wrote you I knew that but did not want to introduce that information. But since you opened the door quite honestly I had heard from trainers at the Wellness Center that there had been complaints of a bigger problem then just urine at the shower, spas, etc.
It is the reason I will not go in a pool nor shower at the gym here.
As for heating pools i suspect with the extreme heat we get from May until October that TV doesn't use much heat if any
