No experience. I have wondered if solar electric would be a good option. They will produce electric every day and what you do not need it electric would be stored by Duke until you need it. (I think you might have an $11 a month charge). The reason for the panels is that on poor solar days you get the electric from Duke and replace it on good days. If electric pool heat makes sense then probably go with whole house AFTER your new roof. I would not expect a return on investment but then you did not expect a return on the pool.
