Hi, I'm new to your forum. I searched but could not find the answers I was looking for.

So here goes...

I have a 24 ft round above ground pool which is not setup yet, but I want to get all my things in order before I begin to set everything up. I would like to get some solar pannels to heat the pool, but the only place that I could put them so they would get useful sunlight would be on the roof. While this is usually not a big deal, but I've got to put the pannel on the second story of my house.

I've done some measuring and I've got to go about 20 ft stright up and then another 8 or so ft along the roof to where the pannels would be mounted. My pump/filter setup will be about 25 ft from the house. So i've got a long and high run to take care of.

My pump is a 1.5 hp Jacuzzi brand. Its about 6 years old and I can't find any specs on it.

So after all this gibberish here is my question: Will my pump be able to handle the load?
