We are having our swimming pool re-tiled so once its done is it cheaper to arrange for water to be delivered in tankers or use water from your home supplier.....thanks in advance for any help with this...

It will be cheaper to have it delivered. If you use your home supply you could well end up receiving a nasty letter from your supplier about excessive use.

I have previously advised to check.this on Arboleas Forum www.arboleas.co.uk.

Frequent posters have confirmed.you can fill via your Galasa supply, and if you spread this over 2 payment periods even better. Apparently you can check this with Galasa & even obtain written confirmation. When we came out 15 years ago this was an offence but I guess things change. If you can't find the posts on the Arboleas Forum.then join (24hrs) & post your query.on General Chatter.

You can get mountain fresh water by the tankerful from Cabreras water, you can actually top up your pool tho it would take a day maybe longer and as has been suggested you might get a smack on the wrist, or not but you'd have a fairly hefty water bill.

Check with Cabrera and compare their charges with what your average water bills work out at.

We were advised that an average 8m x 4 metre pool takes around 45000 litres of water to fill it.

Not according to the posters on Arboleas Forum who were quoting less than 100€ for a standard pool.

Think it would be better to check personally with Galasa as you will be topping up ad infinitum & apparently every so many years the water 'dies' & has to be totally replaced.

When/if you obtain the info.from Galasa then please post on the Forum.

Best Wishes,
