The short answer is no as there are plenty of alternatives but if you want one go ahead

I am planning to leave the pool covered when not in use. So I don't think an aqua bot would work very well. Also the pool has varying depths at angles. Is the only option vacuuming? I am not sure how often you would need to vacuum an indoor pool. Thanks!

My pool is covered and also has a thermal cover it doesn't need a lot of vacuuming as leaves blown, debris is virtually non existant
I use a manual vacuum to clean the pool. I have a Kreepy Krawley type one as well but seldom use it because of the thermal cover
If you want to go for in floor cleaning system

Hello,

Yes, you need an in-floor cleaning system for an indoor pool. There are many cleaning system varieties in the market. You can purchase it according to your requirement.

You don't necessarily need to have an in-flooring cleaning system. As there are many cheaper alternatives but you can go ahead and try one.

Pile of crap for people with more money than sense and like seeing pool engineers frequently. They rob the pump of flow, cost a small fortune to maintain once they are a season or two old and finally die if they don't cause lots of leaks first.
