I spend less than an hour per week on pool maintenance.

If I didn't use it for anything else other than jumping in occasionally while doing yard work, it would be well worth it.

but i spend probably 15-20 minutes per day on it.

as long as i give it some love EVERY SINGLE DAY i have zero problems.

if i ignore it 3-4 days shite goes downhill fast and you'll spend a hard couple of weeks getting it fixed particularly if algae takes hold.

i do everything myself and have gotten away with not closing it in the winter which is great because i don't have to play 'whats under the cover' in the spring when i pull it off.

pools, like a well-kept lawn, require a certain amount of maintenance, that just how it is.
