Can a well be used to fill 5000 gallon swimming pool?

It depends on the well's flow rate and the size of the swimming pool. A typical residential well can produce between 5 and 10 gallons of water per minute. At this rate, it would take approximately 8 to 16 hours to fill a 5000 gallon swimming pool. However, if the well's flow rate is lower, it could take even longer. Additionally, if the swimming pool is larger than 5000 gallons, it will take proportionally longer to fill.

It is important to note that using a well to fill a swimming pool can put a strain on the well's pump and motor, especially if the well is not properly sized for the demand. It is recommended to consult with a professional to determine if your well is capable of handling the additional load before using it to fill a swimming pool.
