When can we use a robotic cleaner in new Pebblesheen pool?

I know we are not going to be living the "brush and vacuum" life for long. Looking at the Dolphin Triton PS based on reviews and price point. When would we be able to start using it in our new Pebble Sheen pool? I can't find anything specific on their website.

Thanks!

You'll be fine after one week

If we used it after one week, would that replace the required brushing?

Sure. I've never really bought into the whole brushing regimen anyway

Brushing is especially not needed with pebblesheen because pebblesheen is acid washed the next day before filling. Definitely ok with running the robot and the robot will replace brushing for the most part. Maybe brush once a month to see if any clouds puff up. If not, quit brushing altogether. I didn't brush my pebble sheen pool the last 3 years and it wasn't needed with the robot.
