Comment on What are your thoughts on pool management apps?
uuj8za@piefed.social 3 weeks agoPool management sucks… I got my pool from green back to blue, but it’s been hard work. Tons of research, almost daily chores, tons of testing, TONS of money spent.
It’s definitely nice to use it when I can though.
But, still. It’s better to know someone who owns a pool, rather than owning the pool yourself.

I can imagine, shame that most people I know won’t swim in the sea as it’s within walking distance. They have all lived here their whole lives while I grew up inland and could only swim in the sea on holidays before moving here.
The only pool we know of is one we rarely get access to, sometimes once a year but for a few years now not even that. We would use it but I think the guy who owns it (or his wife) doesn’t like us using it, even though his son is the one asking.
Maybe I could get an inflatable spa/hot tub instead, far less water to maintain and instructions seem to largely just be filter and chlorine but replace the water after a while. Not so bad when it’s less than £1 of water in the entire tub but for a pool it could easily be significantly more, not to mention more wasteful.
