Salt water is good for low maintenance, but then you have to swim in salt water.

It has pop up heads that come up about two inches from the surface and are spread evenly throughout the pool. When the pump is running they go in intervals of about 4 or 5 at a time for a few minutes, then go down and a new set go up. The heads also rotate each time they come up and shoot out a hard stream of water that pushes the dirt out and up and circulates it to the deep end where it is drained out. I have an in deck chlorinator and just add tabs to that every now and then and check the ph. I only have to brush the sides about once a month, but never the bottom of the pool. I have an 8 cartridge filter and clean them out a couple times a year, other than that I do virtually nothing to keep it clean.
