    Default Re: I'm considering a solar heater in the midwest (Chicago burb area). Will this work?

    I've recently read
    *To achieve total solar heating, the panel square footage must equal 50% of your pool's square footage (length x width).

    is there any truth to this? Could I be done with solar before I start...oh no!

    thanks,
    dan
