Swimming pool gets cool using heat science and Darwin mans ingenuity - ABC News (Australian Broadcasting Corporation)
Interesting idea, not sure if it's been done before on pools. Essentially he circulates pool water into the air over his pool during the cooler mornings to help reduce the temperature of that water which then falls into the pool and keeps the pool cooler.
Darwin is in the Northern Territory which for us Aussies is the hot bit. Its average winter time low temp is about 70 fahrenheit, and then it goes to about 100 most of the time, with so much humidity you can carve bits of it out of the air and take it home with you if that's your thing. It's one of those places where when you fly in, you're sweating as soon as the plane doors open. Northern Territory is one of those places where even Aussies in other states nod at ridiculous stories and go "yep, sounds like the NT". I live in Queensland which is next door but slightly cooler. It's the first day of autumn here tomorrow and it's predicted to be 33C/91F degrees hooray!
