I am trying to figure out how many gallons it holds and came to that website. I am confused. This is a cylinder, and basic volume geometry states the volume of a cylinder is PI * rSQUARED * hieght. http://www.mathexpression.com/volume-of-a-cylinder.html

and the number of gallons in a cubic foot is approx 7.48 gallons per cubic foot http://www.montecitowater.com/how_many_gallons_of_water_in_a_c.htm

so the number of gallons in an 18ft diameter 4ft high pool would roughly be 2424 gallons.. they have 7,000 gallons. and I have seen even 9000 gallons on he web.. What am I missing??!! Something is wrong here and I could use some help please.
