We found the cheapest and fastest solution was to fill it ourselfs with tap water.
Don't be surprised if the chloor level is too high for swimming.
(If you use buckets, you get a great workout as well)

At 1.12e per cubic metre it's pretty cheap by UK standard.

If dealing with CAAF,  above 40m3 costs 2,44e/m3.

A pool measuring 5*12*2 equals 120m3 which implies about 250e to fill pool.

Alternatively, copy the locals; disconnect the meter in middle of night and fill directly at a zero cost, lol.
Everytime we get dirty water coming through, we know that someone has done exactly that. It's a lawless society we live in, so go with the flow!

Is that from the tap or water tanker ?

My tap water from CAAF is only 1.12e per cubic meter for first 10, then 1.30 for next 20.

HELP? Does anyone know where I can get a bulk delivery of water, about 3000 litres, to fill up my water tank which is not yet connected to the mains. Based in Triquivijate. Many thanks.
