This would certainly be the cheapest way to get the pool temperature
down a few degrees.

The "duckweed" must be something like cheap mylar plastic disks that
spread out by themselves with very little clumping. Maybe surface or
magnetic effects + slight wave action will work.

The disks must either float just below the surface or wick water
through for evaporative cooling. The disks should be large enough to
not pass through the filtration / chemical system.

The disks also need to be non toxic.

No one anywhere is worried about cooling down their swimming pool.

The problem is heating them up and keeping them warm.

It is the initial poster that is ignorant.

Cooling a swimming pool is not an issue other than in a very few, and very
hot places and easily done through evaportation techniques put in line
with the filter system.

You are solving a problem that is for all practical purposes non-existant.

What a surprise.
