Good solar panel installations, like Jack's), have thermostats, so you can control the circulating water from overheating. Therefore you will really profit if you have room for an oversized system (ours is almost double), The extra panels are very inexpensive if you install them with the original system. When our system is set on the highest temp in January-March we do not need the gas heat assist to keep the pool at 85 degrees. We do need gas to heat the connected spa to 100 degrees quickly in the winter months, but the solar system will almost do that without any gas assist in the Spring and Fall
