Q: How long does it take to fill a 15,000-gallon pool?

• <div><p>It can take 24 to 48 hours to fill a 15,000-gallon pool with a garden hose. A hose will pump out anywhere from 4 to 12 gallons per minute, with the average hose resting somewhere between 8 to 9 gallons per minute. If you want to speed up the process, a water delivery service can fill your pool in a few hours or less.</p></div>

Q: Do animals make a pool toxic?

• <div><p>No, according to the CDC, animals do not usually pose health risks to swimmers, even if one dies. If a pool is maintained well, chlorine should kill any germs left by an animal within minutes. That said, homeowners should remove the animal as soon as possible and clean and disinfect the pool afterward.</p></div>

Q: How much chlorine do I add to my pool for the first time?

• <div><p>The <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/gallons-in-pool-volume-calculator.htm">number of gallons in your pool</a> will determine how much chlorine you&rsquo;ll need to add to your pool for the first time. Chlorine levels should fall between 1 and 3 ppm. It's crucial to read the instructions on your chlorine packet to determine the number of tablets to put in the water based on your pool's capacity.</p></div>

Q: Does my stock tank pool need a foundation?

• <div><p>You do not need to excavate or lay a foundation for a stock tank pool. You should, however, level the area where you plan to put the stock tank. Also, stock tanks full of water and people can get heavy, so do not place them on a deck or other raised structure that could collapse from the weight.</p></div>
