Hi. I’m new to pool ownership. Bought house in December & am taking over pool care from local company that had been doing my chemistry & occasionally brushing down sides.
I think I need a vacuum as I don’t have one, & am considering a zodiac mx8 that is $400 ($525-$125 mail in rebate). I have also seen dolphin robotic cleaners for about $6-$700. Is it worth the extra to get a robotic? Are there any other units I should consider over these choices?
Future plans include possibly converting to salt water as my wife is sensitive to the chemicals & I would like to maintain low chlorine levels if possible.
Pool:
In ground
20,000 gal
Quartz surface (diamond brute - super blue)
Built in steps & perimeter seating
Recessed ladder
Pop up drains
Attached spa with spill over
