There are many sites out there giving advice. ( I looked into it years ago & gave up) to raise a pool temp 2 degrees u need two times the pool surface area in traditional panels. Excuse my Spanish, but it's like taking a pee-pee in the med. Re: a previous post...

Also heat rises....so your 2 degrees soon disipates. PM me for contact whocan explain better than I. Villas.

This is what I am looking into also

Air source heat pumps are the way to go I believe .

Best read the item on sun tax on the web. Political corruption has sadly made solar power financially inefficient. Those not in the back pocket of the electricity companies are still fighting.

We have Solar Power water heating, it did not cost a fortune to have it fitted, not sure where your information came from, but it seems to be grossly out of date
