Here is a question for you physics or thermodynamics people out there.
I have an inground swimming pool and I am trying to figure out which method would heat the water better. The two options are:
1. have the pump on during the day. The sun heats the water and the water is continuously circulating.
2. Have the pump off during the day. The water is relatively still while the sun heats the water, then turn the pump on at night and circulate after it has been heating all day.
Would one way heat faster or hotter than the other?
