The pumps and filters are inside in a temperature controlled environment and not subject to the temperature extremes that the outdoor pools encounter.



Is it possible they had a use for the space that the indoor pool occupied that would generate more income?

In fact it is more difficult and costly to maintain an indoor pool. You are forgetting the damage done by the chemicals and humidity not only to the building interior but also to the HVAC systems.
