Capacity of Square or Rectangular Pools
In Cubic meters (Meteric)
Length in meters x Width in meters x Average Depth in meters = Volume in Metres cubed.
In Gallons (imperial)
Length in feet x Width in feet x Average Depth in feet x 6.25 = Volume in Gallons
Capacity of Circular Pools
Calculation Volume of Pool = Π(pi) x rx2 x d (Π(pi) = 3.14 , r = Radius, d = Average Depth)
In Cubic Meters (Meteric)
Radius in meters x Radius in meters x average depth in meters x 3.1428 = Volume in metres cubed
In Gallons (Imperial)
Radius in feet x Radius in feet x average depth in feet x 6.25 x 3.1428 = Volume in gallons
Typical Volumes For Circular Above Ground Pools with an average depth of 39 Inches (1 meter)

Swimming Pool Dosing Rates
Dosing rates are expressed in Metric Units, we recommend that a suitable dedicated graduated plastic jug is used to measure liquids and a digital scales that measures in grams is used for accurate measurement of powders.
