I'm doing the same thing with my 8,000 gallon pool I'm putting up. I ran my natural gas line outside and bought an $80 3.2 gal/min tankless water heater. Should be a fun experiment regardless of whether or not it works. This heater has given me a 38 degree rise at 3 gal/min in my tests, so it can theoretically raise the water 15 degrees in a day. This project also caused me to run a line to my propane grill. I've wanted to convert it to natural gas for a while now and can happily report that it works better than ever!
I’m going to hook up tankless water heater to my “smaller” 11000 gallon pool, I’ll update how it goes in a couple months.
