I have a decent sized (18x36) inground pool. My backyard gets direct sun from 800am to 600pm in the summer. But right now although the pool is up and 'running' it's unusable given the temperature. (Currently in the mid 60s )
I do have an existing gas line out there for a heater that was previously connected and is now long gone. However, I have heard horror stories of the cost of heating with gas in NJ. I've been contemplating the solar option but not sure if it's worth it to consider this or if I should just bite the bullet and go with a standard gas heater.
Any fellow Jerseyans feel strongly one way or the other? If you've installed solar in NJ are there any recommendations for specific companies to use or more importantly stay away from?
(We do have a solar blanket we put on it every night.)
