Hey everyone! Was looking to see if anyone might have a good answer for me on this one. Bought my house 9 years ago, ~20,000 gallon pool and solar (two-story house) were already installed. Since then, some summers the pool will heat up great, while others, it might not get warm at all. Last year, upgraded to a Intelliflo Variable Speed pump. Can't for the life of me figure out why pool isn't heating up when for all intents and purposes, it "should."
At the moment, I have a Compool LX220 solar controller. Would upgrading to a Pentair Solartouch change much in my situation in terms of heating the pool better? Or might it be something else I'm doing wrong in terms of when/how I run the pump? During winter time I was running it low RPM for longer, now that it's starting to get into the 80s in temp, I'm running pump at 3000 RPM from 11am-6pm.
If there's any other information needed, would be glad to provide what I know! Thanks everyone!
