No, not quite there yet!

The solar panels are for heating the water--and since they are the deck surrounding the pool, the water cools the deck so it doesn't burn your feet.

I'd love to play around with solar cells and wind to power my pool. I wonder if anyone ever made a 12volt pump????? You can build an inexpensive wind generator using an automotive generator for the power--at 12 volts.
