Cost of Water

[catnip]

Now I understand; I, too, would not want to risk my household water source! Fortunately, in our case, there seems to be plenty of well water available, and we use it every day for irrigation of the lawn.

Wonder what it would cost to rent an empty tanker, pump the water into it while replacing the liner then dump it back into the pool - might be less than the $1,300 for buying new water.

Check with your local water company for they might not charge you for sewer cost, just the water when filling a new pool. My PB gave me a letter stating my fill date and the amount of gallons used to fill. I took it to my water company and was not charged for the sewer portion on that bill. Saved me a boat load on my water bill. If your using a PB to install your liner check with them.

Tanker only holds 6K of water, so I would need 5 of them to get all the old water out.

Also, to drive this you need a CDL.

The 1300 is basically paying for the cost of the truck, driver and delivery...and a little for the water.

Also,

I live in the country (about 60 miles nw of philadelphia) so there is no local water or sewer authority.

I have checked with the local fire departments, truckers union and township office. So far, I have found one company (same one the pool company recommends) that provides this service.
