it would depend on the depth, take the shallowest point measurement and subtract it from the deepest point measurement and then divide by 2 and then add it to the shallowest measurement, this should give you average depth (maker the answer in metres). multiply your answer by 10 and then by 5, this should give you cubic metres, 1 cubic metre is 1 ton of water. Find the best deal you can for 1 ton of water and then tell them you want (and this is a guess for the average pool depth) ( 3 metre shallow by 6 metre deep by 5metre by 10 metre = 4.5 x 10 x 5) = 225 ton, the best deal I have heard of is 70TL for 13 ton which would mean 1212 TL. make some calls offer 1000 and if you can get it e-mail me the phone number, the guy I use would charge me 2000.

My advice, find a pool maintenance company, they will give you the right details for correct PH level water and best prices.

I can give you my preferred choice of pool guy if you send me a request by mail.



Hope this helps, Paul

If you can get that price, you are doing very, very well. snap it up but make sure you tell them full pool, balance tank and while your at it household tanks, in fact, anything that can hold water.

The price of 13 ton for 70 TL is through a friend so if you can get that price do it, immediately.

Graeme. Thanks. I knew something looked completely screwed up but my brain missed it. 10 x 5 x 1.5 = 75.



You should be looking at around 75 ton or 400 TL at the best price or 170 GBP, sorry for being a confusing idiot and many thanks to Graeme for pointing out I am a confusing idiot.

Olimpic pools are in that deep!!



it cant be 3 to 6 meters



I think it is maximum 2.5 meters as an average



so 10 x 5 x 2.5 =125 ton.



so if price is 70 TL per ton than



the filling expense will be less than 700 TL which is around 300 STG

i think between 8 and 10tl is ok.



The 10tl a ton water makes a little less work for the pool cleaner when filling a pool from scratch.

Using Zerochlor's figures on his helpful website for an 8X4 metre pool with an average depth of 1.5 metres water requirement is 50,000 litres and I calculate from that, 75,000 litres will be needed for a 10X5 metre pool if the average depth is 1.5 metres. Assuming metric tons, approx 75 tons of water will be needed to fill the larger pool quoted. I intend to empty my pool (10X5) this Autumn or Spring for regrouting and my regular water supplier will refill it for £200 which I calculate to be approx £2.67 or 6.14 TL per ton. However, I should point out that his travel is only a half mile return journey and I give him EFFES and throw him in the pool on every visit. Thus the key to a good deal may be to try and contract with somebody as near as possible. Where is your pool located ? PS. Disclaimer. My maths is as poor as my spelling so please check figures. Best of luck with it
