Has anyone setup their pool with a heat exchanger working off of a domestic boiler?
I've got an amazing Viessman boiler heating my home, and am thinking about pulling a loop from the sand filter and running it into the basement through a Bowman pool heat exchanger.
My biggest concern is whether or not the Intex 1600 sand filter's pump is up to the task of pushing the water an additional 75 feet through 1-1/2" pvc pipe. The pool and the boiler are at roughly the same elevation.
Any advice or thoughts would be greatly appreciated.
