Knowing the ft² of a pool is key to calculating how many tiles you need. We show you how to calculate the square feet of a swimming pool. Use the formula to estimate the total, considering that pools often have corners or steps, which makes the calculation approximate. We recommend rounding the measurements and adding 5-10% more tiles to cover unforeseen events or errors, thus ensuring that the project is completed without setbacks and saving costs.
Length x Width: Bottom area.
Length x Average Depth x 2: Area of the two long sides.
Width x Shallow Depth: Shallow side area.
Width x Deepest Depth: Deepest side area.
Add it all up and you will have the total square feet of the pool. Simple!
Example: Pool of 16.4 ft x 32.8 ft with a depth of 3.28 ft in the shallowest area, and 6.56 ft in the deepest part (which means an average depth of 4.92 ft)
Length x Width = 32.8 x 16.4 = 538.2 ft² of pool bottom
Length x Average Depth x 2 = 32.8 x 4.92 x 2 = 322.9 ft² of long walls
Width x Shallow Depth = 16.4 x 3.28 = 53.82 ft² of shallow wall
Width x Deepest Depth = 16.4 x 6.56 = 107.64 ft² of deepest wall
Adding it all up: 1,022.2 ft² of total surface area
Adding a 10% safety margin and adjusting to full boxes of 1in mosaic (they are 21.53 ft² per box) = 1,141.2 ft²
