    I just ordered 2 of these devices. I hope they work as advertised. I will post back my experience with them and let you know if they work or are bogus.

    I received the pool cooling devices today. I will try to install them tonight and see what they do. I will let you know. BTW-if you buy 2, the S&H is free.

    I had to go buy one of the keys to remove the pipe at the returns. I will do this tomorrow. It has been in the high 90's with heat indexes of 105+. We had a few days that weren't sweltering heat, along with some rain, and my pool came down to a refreshing 84. Now I'm sure it will be back to 90+. I will post back and let you know if this works or not.

    Well, I installed the pool coolers tonight, and I must say so far so good. My water was 91 degrees tonight, and we have nothing but 95 degree days with heat indexes of 100+ ahead. As soon as I installed them and turned my pump back on, I jumped in to see what it would do. It was amazing. The water coming out of the device was about 10 degrees cooler than the pool water. You can stick your hand in the water, then immediately put it in the water being sprayed, and it is day and night difference. I left them in and running tonight and put my Aquabot in. I also had to shock as I have some algae developing. So there is a lot of stuff going on in my pool right now. I will post back and let you know the results, hopefully getting to below 85.

    Hey CarlD, I'm assuming you mean the air temperature and not the water temperature. If that's the case, I'll trade. We've been hitting 100+ for weeks now. But, we may be a little more used to it. Our pool water hit 94 and running the fountain at night (temps in the low 80s at night) has keep the pool at 90 which is doable, but not preferred. How about a 500 lb block of ice that we could swim with, wouldn't that be fun.
