I've got a 20 x 40 IG pool with an electric heatpump in Northern NJ. I have always used a solar cover on the pool which works really well but is a royal pain in the rear. I was thinking about adding a solar heater in addition to the heat pump instead of using the cover. Any idea if a solar sysem with 4 sets of 2' by 10' panels would provide me more or less heat than what I would give up by not using the solar cover?

Any recommendations of what brand and where to get a solar panel system if this makes any sense to do?

Thanks
