7 × 5 m L-shape
pool plan
A full family pool: a shallow end where kids stand and games happen, a proper deep end for diving-free swimming, and enough length that two people can swim without negotiating. This is the most-built size class in private gardens for a reason.
The L-shape is really two pools sharing water: a long leg for swimming and a shorter leg for steps, play or a tanning ledge. The right angle lets the pool wrap a terrace or house corner, and the zones separate naturally — swimmers keep their lane while kids stay in the shallow leg.

The numbers, computed
- Water surface
- 28.4 m²
- Water volume
- 42.0 m³ (41,966 L)
- Perimeter
- 24.0 m
- Depth
- 1.2–1.8 m
- Excavation approx.
- 65 m³
- Fill time (garden tap)
- 28 hours
- Skimmers needed

Figures are computed from the sampled pool outline and the plan's depths — the same geometry the 3D designer uses. Excavation includes shell and working allowance; your site conditions may differ.
Questions about this plan
- How much water does a 7 × 5 m pool hold?
- About 42.0 m³ (42.0 tonnes of water) at 1.2–1.8 m depth — computed from the actual pool outline, not a rule of thumb.
- How long does it take to fill?
- Roughly 28 hours 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 28.4 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.
