The short answer is approximately 30,000 U.S. gallons is the capacity of a 20' x 40' pool.

Determine your pool volume by with these easy to use formulas:

Rectangular Pools: Length x Width x Average Depth x 7.5 = Gallons

Oval Pools: Length x Width x Average Depth x 5.9 = Gallons

Round Pools: Diameter x Diameter x Average Depth x 5.9 = Gallons

Most 20 x 40 inground pools, assuming hopper depth of 8 feet, shallow depth of 42 inch, hold roughly 35,000 gallons. With Average depth of 5.5 feet, would hold about 34,760 gallons.
