How to determine swimming pool gallons. Length x width x average depth x multiplier volume in us gallons. How to determine the average depth of a swimming pool where the bottom slopes. If your pool has a shallow end and a deep end find the average depth of the pool by adding the depth of both ends together and then dividing the results by 2. I wish to calculate how many uk gallons of water are required to completely fill the pool.
