. . . membership updated.

Not sure how much we know about solar heat, except:

1. Sizing is a bet of a guesstimate.
2. Successful installations usually seek to WARM cool pools, rather than HEAT cold ones.
3. You have to be careful not to restrict your pool flow, and compromise filtration. People with soft-side pools (Intex) usually need a bigger (or second) pump.
