Pool Evaporation Calculator
Calculate daily water evaporation and replacement costs for swimming pools
About this calculator
The Pool Evaporation Calculator helps swimming pool owners estimate daily water loss due to evaporation and calculate the associated replacement costs. Pool evaporation is affected by factors like temperature, humidity, wind speed, and pool surface area. This tool enables you to budget for water costs, monitor unusual water loss, and plan for seasonal variations. Understanding your pool's evaporation rate is essential for maintaining proper water levels and managing operational expenses effectively.
How to use
Enter your pool's surface area in square feet, along with local weather conditions including air temperature, humidity levels, and wind speed. Input your local water cost per gallon. The calculator will determine your daily evaporation rate and corresponding water replacement costs, helping you plan your pool maintenance budget.
Frequently asked questions
How much water does a pool typically lose daily?
Most pools lose 1/4 to 1/2 inch of water daily due to evaporation, varying with weather conditions and pool size.
What factors increase pool evaporation?
Higher temperatures, low humidity, strong winds, and larger pool surface areas all increase evaporation rates significantly.
Is winter evaporation different from summer?
Yes, pools typically lose less water in winter due to cooler temperatures and higher humidity levels.
