i have an intex above ground 15 by 48 inch pool.. the thing is i live in the very north so heat is an issue. i have set up diy solar panels made from a garden hose 400ft long they work like a charm...1/6 hp pump used to keep it flowing... right now i have sump pump hose wrapped around my chimney (we dont use the wood stove )so i would like to collect the radiant heat. it is wrapped to a height of ten feet... but i cant for the life of me get the pool pump to pump that high.... do i need a smaller hose a bigger pool pump... surely there is a way id appreciate anyh help.... before long i will be in minus 35 temperatres cel ius. so if i can extend my pool time by even a couple of weeks id be happy
