The amount of water used by a pool is affected by the size and depth of the pool, as well as the amount of water that evaporates.

A standard residential pool is typically 20 to 30 feet wide and 6 to 10 feet deep. This type of pool typically uses between 10,000 and 30,000 gallons of water for each pool use, based on a standard use of 8 hours per week. In warmer climates or during the summer months, this amount can double. The depth and size of a pool also affect water loss due to evaporation; Deeper pools have less surface area for evaporation than shallow pools, so they lose less water through evaporation.
