Hi all - love this forum!
We have a 20k gal pool with a propane heater. The pool also has a spa spill over. The spa heats up in about 30 minutes which is great but heating the pool is rather expensive. Looking for tips to heat the pool the best way.
Here are some things I've toyed with:
Diverter Valve in boost mode (this makes a huge difference and is great for "pre-heating")
Setting the pool to spa mode, but manually switching to the pool drain which allows the spa to catch a lot of heat. Allow's people a place to get warmed up
Heating the spa to 95°, then dumping the water into the pool and repeating.
Added liquid solar cover to the pool
Any other things that you can recommend to get the pool from about 79° to 88° for the weekends?
