How much water does a Ø 6 m pool hold?

About 41.1 m³ (41.1 tonnes of water) at 1.2–1.8 m depth — computed from the actual pool outline, not a rule of thumb.

How long does it take to fill?

Roughly 27 hours from a standard garden tap (~1.5 m³/h). A water delivery service fills it in a few hours.

Is this size right for my garden?

The water surface is 28.2 m²; plan roughly 1.5–2× that footprint including the surrounding deck. Open the plan in the designer and set your own deck margins to see the full footprint.

Can I change the depth or edge type?

Yes — open the plan in the designer and adjust depths, edge system (skimmer, deck-level overflow or raised), finishes and accessories freely.

About this pool

A full family pool: a shallow end where kids stand and games happen, a proper deep end for diving-free swimming, and enough length that two people can swim without negotiating. This is the most-built size class in private gardens for a reason.

A round pool is the most social shape there is: everyone faces everyone, there's no deep-end hierarchy, and it drops into a small garden or courtyard without dominating it. It's the natural choice for cooling off, kids' play and spa-like plunge pools rather than lap swimming.

The numbers, computed

Water surface: 28.2 m²
Water volume: 41.1 m³ (41,052 L)
Perimeter: 18.8 m
Depth: 1.2–1.8 m
Excavation approx.: 63 m³
Fill time (garden tap): 27 hours
Skimmers needed: 2×
Heat pump size: 15 kW

Figures are computed from the sampled pool outline and the plan's depths — the same geometry the 3D designer uses. Excavation includes shell and working allowance; your site conditions may differ.
