Frequently asked questions
How do I measure pool depth for irregular bottoms?
Measure the shallow end depth and deep end depth, then calculate the average: (shallow depth + deep depth) ÷ 2.
Should I account for pool features like steps and benches?
Yes, subtract approximately 5-10% from the calculated volume to account for built-in features that displace water.
How accurate are these volume calculations?
Pool volume calculations are typically accurate within 5-10% for standard pool shapes when measurements are precise.
