Understanding Your Intex Pool Calculations
This Intex swimming pool calculator helps pool owners worldwide determine the specific requirements for their pools based on size, type, and environmental factors. Proper calculation ensures efficient operation, lower maintenance costs, and a healthier swimming environment.
Pool Volume Calculation
The calculator determines your pool’s volume in gallons, which is fundamental for all other calculations. For rectangular pools, it uses length × width × average depth × 7.5. Round pools use radius² × average depth × 5.9.
Pump and Filter Recommendations
Based on your pool’s volume and usage, the calculator recommends appropriate pump sizes (in gallons per hour) and filter types. Residential pools typically need pumps that can circulate the entire water volume in 8-10 hours.
Chemical Requirements
The calculator estimates chemical needs based on pool volume, water type, and climate. Saltwater pools have different requirements than freshwater pools, and hotter climates typically require more chemicals due to faster evaporation and bacterial growth.
Cost Estimates
Monthly cost estimates include electricity for the pump, chemical costs, and water replacement. These estimates are based on average utility rates across multiple countries but may vary based on your local rates.
