When we bought P2-farm back on Dec 4th, 2014 the pool was 68-degrees F. We had the new pool heater installed in March of 2015. The pool was still about 68-degrees.

P2 is a private farm and sanctuary for non-threatening, Florida woodland animals. We're surrounded by the sound of construction and loss of natural habitat for birds, reptiles and creatures of all sort. Our goal is to provide a natural habitat for them to find respite amid the changing landscape and share the journey with you.
We're in our 8th year here at P2 and the weather continues to modulate, ebb and flow, like the sea.
In previous years we had our coldest temperatures in January and 2022 continued the trend with horrible, horrible cold weather :-)
In December of 2021 while enduring the remains of the pandemic we ran the pool heater and tried to swim at least every other day. Once we crossed into January, we decided to turn the pool off around Jan 10th because it was costing almost $20 a day to keep it warm. That sort of temperature load also puts a LOT of wear on the heater which is now in its 8th year here.
