Despite record high water temps last year from June until the end of August if we installed an above ground pool heater it would extend our swim season by around 2 months.
13,000 gallon 4' deep circular pool that sits in direct sun all the time. The issue is in September the days are hot but the nights just kill the temps (and the sun dropping doesn't help).
Thanks!

Watson's pool store by us suggested a 135k BTU analog ($1,600) or 150k digital ($1,899). I'd have to have a propane line run out to the pool from my tank but I'd do the trenching. Option 2 is a heat pump (40Amp, 47k BTU $2,299) and there's already a 220 hookup at the back of the house. I'm already intending for an electrician to run electric out to the pool so I can quick running my pump on an extension cord.
I don't really know what questions to ask, here. It's like asking a fish "how's the water?" I don't know what questions to ask these vendors, things to consider, pros/cons, etc., I welcome your thoughts.
Thanks!
