I see a lot of videos of cleaning pools and I don’t understand why heavily dirty pools aren’t just drained instead of adding things to it. Is it cheaper? Aren’t the chemicals harmful? Is the concentration harmful?

People have mentioned the cost associated with refilling a pool. There is also the time it takes to refill using a garden hose. Since that is all most people will realistically have. With a flow rate of 6-12 gallons per minute a 20,000 gallon pool would take almost 28 hours to fill up at the very best flow rate (20,000 gallons ÷ 12 gal per min ÷ 60 min per hour = 27.777 hours). That is a complete waste of time when it takes 3-5 hours a week to properly clean a pool of debris and make sure the chemicals are in proper balance.
