My wife has been bugging me for years about finding a cheap way to heat our in ground pool. I acquired a 340W solar panel, and was thinking that might work. I was thinking about buying a hot water heater element, building a housing, and putting it into my return line from the pool pump. What I’m finding is 2000W elements and similar elements. What would happen if I attached the solar panel to the element, would it produce enough energy to heat the water at all? Also, the box that houses the element would be made out of PVC material, would there be any danger of the PVC melting?
thanks
Laby
