Looking for some help and info.

When we had our pool remodeled I had the pull enough power to the pad to add a heat pump if i ever decided to go that route. Well we are looking at adding Solar to the house, so if might as well add the heat pump to be able to heat the pool for basically free. I have all Pentair equipment including screen logic, so i would need a pentair heat pump, but in terms of additional solar panels what kinda kw draw would i expect from the heat pump? I have had 2 solar quotes and they both had drastically different opinions no how many additional panels i would need to support it. Also is a heat pump even worth it? Hearing from anyone with any insight would be greatly appreciated.
