Pool fill up

[mmardini]

This is the first time I’ve ever drained and refilled a pool. We started this morning at 9:30am and we have two hoses going. We are barely at the first step and it’s almost 6:00 pm here. My question is how long does it usually take a pool to fill? And how do you go about sleeping while it’s filling? I’m afraid I’ll
Wake up and it’ll be too full if we go to sleep. We do have an auto fill feature which is currently not on, but thinking of using that when the water gets high enough. Thank you for your help!

Is this a refill or fill after new plaster? Makes a big difference.

Fill after plaster

Fill after plaster

Using a pebble finish if that matters

Then you do not want to stop until the water is at the tile line. Imperative. Set some alarms to check on it.

Ok will do. Can I use the auto fill feature to help raise the water faster?

Pool is much more important than sleep!

Only once the autofill entry into the pool is below the water level. You do not want water running down the side of the pool.
