    keep running solar heater on partly cloudy days?

    First day of running solar heater and its a cloudy day with some sun. So do I run out and shut it off when sun is covered by clouds? or just leave it? I can feel the difference in water temp that's coming out when sun isn't out.

    What's your current pool temp?

    I'm so jealous!! Our pool is also in the shade in the am and we have no heater BUT we live in MN and have had a lot of rain that cooled our pool down to 70 and so now only the 7yr old will get in it. Wondering if buying this pool was worth it if only one person will get use of it. Grrrr :hammer:
