Help Calculating Pool Volume

[Undrwtr1]

I am not a math whiz by any stretch and have guesstimated my pool's volume over the years as being around 25,000 gallons. Perhaps some of you math/science/engineering wizards can give me a more accurate calculation. I have attached my liner diagram (pool is filled to 36" even though walls are 40" overall.

Thanks in advance for your brain power!

I modeled it and get just over 22,000 gallons.

How does your chemical additions work out?

I’ve been using 25k for years and chemicals have always been pretty close to right on. I use poolmath for the amounts and all seems to work.

IF 25,000 is working according to the chem additions, I'd say keep using it. Chem additions tend to make the best volume 'guestimator' if you do them over time.

Thanks Bama - mind if I ask how you modeled it? Curious to learn something.

I have access to several CAD software packages that I use to model different things.

Thanks - thats what I figured.
