It’s a fair question. Utah is a dry state, and water conservation matters. So if you’re thinking about putting a swimming pool in your backyard, you may be wondering how much water you’ll actually use and whether there are ways to reduce unnecessary water loss.
The honest answer is that every pool uses water. Water can be lost through evaporation, splashing, leaks, cleaning, and other normal parts of pool ownership. But that doesn’t mean you have to waste water. The way you design, operate, cover, and maintain your pool can make a meaningful difference. And this is one area where the equipment and habits around the pool matter just as much as the pool itself.
