I see it calculates in Imperial gallons. Is it really or is it US gallons?

I only see 2 choices-metric and imperial. I don't see US gallons.

Imperial gallon is 4.54609 L (exactly). That is approximately 1.201 US gallons.

The Raddish is correct-that why I questioned it. I live on the Canadian border and in Canada they use the Imperial gallon. I travel there frequently so I knew of the difference.

Everyone has had such great success using the calculator as is can I assume US gallons were implied?

From a post by Michael Smith on 6-12-06;
Ah. Well, that's more of a slipup on my part. I should have labled it US measurements...all of the gallons are US gallons.

The answer is that it is US gallons. You can tell from the "Pool Volume" calculation.
