How much water does a 12 × 6 m pool hold?

About 110.9 m³ (110.9 tonnes of water) at 1.2–2.0 m depth — computed from the actual pool outline, not a rule of thumb.

How long does it take to fill?

Roughly 3 days 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 70.6 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

An estate-class pool: resort presence at home, with room for swimming, play and lounging at the same time. At this size the supporting decisions matter as much as the basin — plan generous decks, a solid heat source and an automatic cover from day one, because every square metre of water is heated, treated and covered.

A rounded rectangle keeps almost all of the rectangle's swimmable water but rounds the corners into generous fillets. The result reads softer in a garden, is gentler on swimmers, and the corners no longer trap debris the way sharp ones do. It's the shape we default to in the designer.

The numbers, computed

Water surface: 70.6 m²
Water volume: 110.9 m³ (110,906 L)
Perimeter: 33.8 m
Depth: 1.2–2.0 m
Excavation approx.: 168 m³
Fill time (garden tap): 3 days
