Is a vinyl or a gunite swimming pool lower in maintenance cost over time?
Answer
In terms of water balancing and sanitizing, the costs are comparable. Though you may need to purchase chemicals and an automatic pool cleaner that are safe for vinyl-lined pools if you choose that option, the cost differences are minimal.
You may run into higher maintenance costs if you select a gunite pool, simply because pool buyers often select this option because gunite is more customizable. If your swimming pool is of an out-of-the ordinary shape, you may spend more time and money on maintaining it. For example, a pool service provider might charge extra to clean it, or you might spend extra money on an automatic pool cleaner that can be customized to clean pools of unusual shapes. However, if you buy a cheap pool liner and/or you don't take care of it, a vinyl-lined pool can also be expensive because you'll need to replace the liner more often.
Most pool buyers make the decision of whether to invest in a gunite or vinyl-lined pool based on the desire for customization, durability needs, and budget considerations. Vinyl liners don't easily lend themselves to unusual pool shapes, though you can purchase custom pool liners. Gunite pools are more durable over the long term than vinyl-lined pools. However, gunite pools are considerably more expensive to install - especially if you opt for more customization - than vinyl pools.

what is the best underground auto pool cleaners?
bucs
i have a side suction that uses a skimmer. It is a concrete underground pool
Answer
First off I need more info. Is your pool equipped with an automatic pool cleaner line? Does it have a booster pump to propel a cleaner? Let me clarify. Automatic cleaners fall into two categories. Suction side and pressure side. Suction side cleaners operate off the filter pumps suction. Typically they plug into a skimmer, thereby diverting the skimming action to operate the cleaner. There are any number of these on the market. Which is best depends on several factors. Is your pool inground gunite (concrete) or vinyl? What type of debris gets in the pool THE MOST? (Leaves, sand, grass clippings, etc.)
Pressure side cleaners operate from the pressure (return) side. They either must have a dedicated pool cleaner line (installed when the pool is built) or work off a return fitting. Some cleaners require a separate booster pump to drive them, others do not. Again we need to know if the pool is gunite or vinyl and what type of debris is most prevalent. Answer these questions and I can direct you to the cleaner line I've had the most reliable service from. (Been in the pool business 35 years, so I've seen more than a few cleaners!.)
