Technical Calculator for all Pond aspects
LINER CALCULATIONS:
Length=(Depth x 2) + Length + 3 ft.
Width= (Depth x 2) + Width + 3 ft.
An 8 x 10 x 2.5 would require a 16' x 18' Liner
POND VOLUME CALCULATOR
Length x Width x Depth x 7.48
Example: A 12 x 10 x 2 foot depth would be 1795.2 Gallons
ROUND POND CALCULATIONS
Top Diameter (across) x Bottom Diameter (across) x depth x .785 x 7.48
FISH CALCULATIONS
Total gallons of pond divided by 200 = Total 6" fish safely stocked.
Total gallons of pond divided by 800 = Total 12" fish safely stocked.
PUMP SIZE
Total gallons of pond divided by 3 = Minimum pump size.
ELECTRICITY CALCULATIONS
Watts per hour divided by 1000 = Kilowatts per hour.
Kilowatts x 0.10 = Kilowatt dollars per hour KWDH
KWDH x 24 = Kilowatt dollars per day KWDD
KWDD x 30 = Kilowatt dollars per month.
KWDD x 365 = Kilowatt dollars per year.
OTHER USEFUL CALCULATIONS
Total gallons of water x 8.5 = Total weight of water.
Total surface of pond ( L X W ) divided by 65 = total tons of stone for edging pond.
BARLEY STRAW
Find the approximate square footage of your pond by multiplying the average length
by the average width. Divide this number by 100 to figure how many pounds you need,
per application. 4 Applications per year, Quarterly.
