Ouch yall, yall paying these amounts are wild.
https://maytronicsus.com/product/residential/s300/To clean your pool, This will run you around $1000 or so but I can promise you if you have a polaris in your pool this will be a significant upgrade.
Then if you are a chlorine pool,
https://www.freshwatersystems.com/products/stenner-single-head-adjustable-pump-with-15-gallon-tank-1-tube-0-2-3-gpd-system-120-voltThis will put frequent liquid chlorine in your pool without raising CYA. Beyond that I add muratic acid in the pool maybe once a month or so and thats it.
In 1 month, I spend:
10 Minutes adding liquid chlorine to the pump system tank.
10 minutes cleaning the Dolphin cleaner filters
10 minutes cleaning the pool catch can things.
10 minutes adding Muratic acid.
Your payback if you bought everything above is $1500/$150 = 10 months, at $400 your payback is 3.5 months.
Hope this helps someone else as much as it did me.
