Black irgation pipe, brilliant stuff for heating water using the sun.
Google diy solar pool heater & homemade solar pool heater will give you plenty of ideas.

Using 25mm Black MDPE Pipe, it's larger so the water will move slower & pick up more heat from it.

Look on the bay or google for Black MDPE Pipe.

But, you would need hundreds of mtrs, & I doubt you will warm the water that much in the pool.

Probabley had a pump, even the large pond pumps apparently work ok, but you can use the exsisting pool pump spliced in.

Pumped water from pool through pool heater & returned hot water feed back into pool.

You can get 'Swivel Manifold Fittings',but I think you are better off with using coils of pipe, but as before your expecting great results & I don't think you will see that.
