Below is a chart based on a water cost of $9 for every 1000 gallons of water it requires to fill your pool. Your water cost may be higher or lower….Determine Cost.

Length x width x depth x 7.5 = volume (in gallons) Length times width gives the surface area of the pool. Multiplying that by the depth gives the volume in cubic feet. Since there are 7.5 gallons in each cubic foot, multiply the cubic feet of the pool by 7.5 to arrive at the volume of the pool, expressed in gallons.

Does a pool increase your water bill? Yes. The average pool takes about 18,000 to 20,000 gallons of water. It can cost you an average of $40 to $60 on your water bill per month.

After the first filling, if handled and maintained properly, your pool will not affect your water bill for the next several years. When the pool is drained and refilled, your next water bill will increase, as it did when you filled the pool for the first time.

Next for your consideration is water delivery tankers hold about 9,000 gallons and roughly cost $375.00 for a local delivery. They do have the ability to get you half of a tanker but the pricing is not 50% less. The pricing is in the range of $225 for a half tanker delivery.

Using that simple math, it stands to reason that your water bill will at least double when you fill your pool for the first time from a hose. For just a few more pennies per gallon, you could enjoy more time splashing with the family and alleviate any hassle associated with the task at hand.

Hi, with 12″ of water in the pool you should be fine to let it fill all night. The stretching should be done and the liner tight against the wall. If so, let it go. There is some air gap between the liner and the wall in a few areas.

The labor charge to simply drain and refill is only about $300. For those that need a complete acid wash, the labor to drain and acid wash is around $1000. As far as actual water cost goes, don’t be scared off. Most pools only cost about $100-200 in water expense.

It’s not unusual for 30,000 gallons (approx. volume of a 20′ x 40′, 5′ depth pool) to run over $1200.

The cost of pool filling is . 10 per gallon for 4000 gallons or . 09 per gallon for 6200 gallons or more.

Common Pool Sizes and Its Capacity In Gallons

Most rectangular pools are about twice as long on one side as they are on the other, with an average depth of around 5.5 feet. Typical swimming pool dimensions are 10 x 20, 15 x 30, and 20 x 40. When you think of a backyard pool, you think of a rectangular pool that’s about twice as long as it is wide.

These measurements create a surface area of square feet and a volume of 88,263 cubic feet. The pool has gallons of water, which equals about 5,511,556 lbs.

There are 231 cubic inches in a US gallon. Our rule of thumb is you get 6.4 square feet of coverage when applied at 1/4” thick or . 59 square meters.

5061 gal

Multiply the cubic feet by the amount of water per cubic foot, which is 7.48 gallons. In this example, you would multiply 7.48 times 600 to get 4,488 gallons of water.

0.2614 ft

Convert the volume in cubic feet to the capacity in gallons. Multiply the tank’s volume by 7.48, the number of gallons in a cubic foot. For example, 104.625×7. 48 = 782.6 gallons.

Formula:

1. Formula:
2. L x W x D. = Cubic Feet.
3. Cubic ft x 7.47. = Gallons.
