About this calculator

What is the Swimming Pool Calculator?

The swimming pool calculator calculates the pool volume in cubic meters and liters, as well as its filling time and water cost. You need to know the volume when sizing the filter or dosing chemicals.

The calculator is free, works in your browser without registration, and shows the result as soon as you change the values. The calculation is done on your device, and the information you enter is not sent anywhere.

Formula and Calculation Principle

Rectangular: length × width × average depth. Round: π × (diameter / 2)² × average depth. Filling time = liters / flow rate (l/min). Cost = m³ × water price.

Practical Example

A rectangular pool measuring 5 × 3 meters and with an average depth of 1.3 meters has a volume of 19.5 m³ or 19,500 liters. With a flow rate of 20 liters per minute, filling takes about 16 hours. With default values, the calculator gives the result: Pool volume 19.50 m³.

Who is the calculator suitable for?

For builders or owners of backyard pools who want to know the volume for filtration, heating, and chemical dosing.

Tips and Notes

  • Measure from the water level, not from the edge of the pool.
  • Size the filter so that the entire volume of water circulates in 6–8 hours.
  • Check with the water utility for guidelines on large filling times.
