thanks all! But does anybody know of any machines/systems ready to buy here that might work??? Heard of temp/floating coolers in the US but have not found them here...

I am not sure how to explain this but our pool has a nozzle that cleans/circulate the water and it is near the surface. We adjust it so that it circulate just on the top of the water, this is enough to keep the water cool. Not chilled but comfortable to be in.

Hey! We usually just buy loads of blocks of ice when we want to use the pool which cools it down tremendously :D We found an ice company in al Quoz I think that delivers to your house, we usually get around 30 blocks of ice which in the middle of the summer melt super quickly so sometimes have got 40-50 big blocks of ice. Ill ask DH for number for you if you want. HTH
