The Best Above Ground Pool Heater? Propane Tankless Water Heater setup

What is the best above ground pool heater? Not this one, but this is a loaded question as there are many ways to heat a pool and depending on where you live solar could be your best choice. But if you have too many cloudy or foggy days maybe a fuel-based solution works best. Add a need to be "off grid" and pool heater choices dwindle. Have plenty of electricity available? You have more options. This pool heater DIY project is a result of those questions and a few other personal choices I made. Here is where I am at so far. Our Intex above ground pool heater needed to be fueled by an energy source such as propane or natural gas. We live near the coast in California and have mild cool summers with lots of cloudy days. So a solar pool heater just won't work for us. We needed a tankless water heater with a pump.
UPDATE: It turned out well, but this set up is best for smaller pools. Don't waste your time and money on anything above 5,000 gallons capacity pools.
