I got the Intelliflo VF. Before, I had my 2 kW pump running for 4 hours, for a total of 8KW/day in electricity. Now, mine runs at 300W for 14 hours a day, for a total of 4.2KW/day. That’s 50% savings. Since my electricity usually gets into the higher tiers, that’s 30c/KW, or about $1.20/day that I am saving. That’s $430/year. In 18 months from purchase, I break even with the deal that I got. I think I had found the Intelliflo VF online for $1100. I asked San Dieguito Pool to price match the pump + installation ($200) + 3 years warranty. Minus the $200 SDGE rebate, I think my total cost was about $1100.
I highly recommend it. $1500 sounds a bit rich, though.

[quote=jeeman]Has anyone priced out the cost of a solar pool heating system?[/quote]
I think they typically run about $5k.
would really consider an automatic pool cover instead. it is pricier, we got ours for $8k. Well hidden since we built it at the time of the pool construction. They do have ones they can install onto existing pools but do not look as clean.
It traps heat well and cut way down on evaporation. our pool has been at 81-83 over the last few days with just the pool cover.
with a pool cover, a pool vacuum, and a salt system, we don’t have any maintenance worries at all.
