Solar heater?



About a half dozen of our near-neighbors have nice in-ground pools, but
in all the years we've lived here, I've only seen one of these pools
being used during summer pool season. Obviously, my casual observations
during "drive bys" aren't scientific, but you would think on the really
steamy summer days here, you'd see bunches of kids in the pools.


That is not unusual. There are plenty of people around here who never
use their pools but that is not me. I am in it several times a day for
about 8-9 months a year. Dec/Jan/Feb it doesn't get used much but if
the kids are here or something, I do have a 330KBTU gas heater.
Realistically, kids don't care. It is seldom above 70 and that is
warmer than Lake Michigan ever seems to get up where they are.
It was the middle of August when we were there and it was 69
