dad installed an above ground pool this summer, it's fairly large...about 20 feet across, 4 deep.
the problem being...it's REALLY not pool weather here....like EVER.....we got to use it maybe 4 times this summer, and even then it was COLD.
sooooo......dad decided he'd rig up something to heat it.
right now there is a giant wooden box in the yard.........he painted it black.
he put loops and loops and loops of black pipe in it...i'm not sure how many feet, but a LOT.......and four deep. ......then he's going to put glass windows on the top of the box.....and mount it on top of my house cause it's in the sun all day.......it's going to be connected to the pool between the filter intake and the outflow.....or whatever you call it.
not sure how much warmer it will make the water.....it might be two weeks worth of work for nothing.
