I have an inground pool with spa that was built last year that is salt water. It seems pretty self sufficient but I pay a pool service company $125 per month to come out once per week. I noticed recently that they are at my house for all of about 5 minutes. They turn on the pool, which is...

My pool contractor said I have the choice of pool cleaners. He gave me either the 'Rebel' by Pentair or 'The Pool Cleaner' aka Pool Vernugen. Which one is better?

My contractor just installed my Pentair Ultratemp ETI hybrid heater for my pool. It seems to work in all modes (Gas only, H. Pump only, Hybrid and Dual) when on the pool but for the spa it will only work in H. Pump only. My contractor said this is normal but Im not convinced. Shouldnt I be...
