The water is not running thru the solar as we have it set at about 80...and our water temp today is 90, due to sun shining on the pool (lanai faces west)...on days without sun it was in the 85-86 range w/o solar. When there is a breeze, it actually feels cool when you get out

Someone recommended that we run it during the night to cool it, but havent done that yet.
