We have solar and gas heat. Moved in in August, Solar installed mid September. We are not using the heater, yet. I have been tracking the pool and air temperatures during the day. In the morning the pool is several degrees warmer. I haven’t seen a level below 72, yet. By 10 they have been equal. By noon the pool is warmer by three or four degrees. By mid afternoon the pool is approaching the solar setting. The question is what water temp is comfortable? For us 85 is good. The morning heater run strategy sounds like a good one right now. May not be enough for January.
