Pool Heater: Heat pump vs. solar panels?

Please provide advice as to what would make sense to heat an outdoor pool in Florida. I don’t want to use gas – too expensive. What is cheaper to use on a monthly basis, solar or a heat pump? What keeps a pool heated for more time? Please provide any and all advice. Thanks!

It’s a catch 22. Solar is much more expensive to install and looks crappy on your roof. Make sure your orientation to the sun is correct. Heat pump will cause less aggrivation to install but might require more service in the long run. On a monthly basis solar would be less.
