Water and refill in Nashville
Metro Water Services supplies Metro Nashville and Davidson County from the Cumberland River. A 16x32 in-ground pool holds roughly 20,000 gallons, and Metro's most recent published guidance asks for voluntary odd/even watering between 7 p.m. and 4 a.m. rather than posting a mandatory stage.

Refill water costs $60 to $350 on city supply or $400 to $900 trucked in, and startup chemicals add $80 to $200.
Soil, drainage and the shell
Central Tennessee sits in the Nashville Basin, where USDA-NRCS describes soils as clayey with restrictive layers. The slow permeability is the reason water held against a shell corrodes steel walls and can float a liner while a pool sits empty.
The local pool stock
Ask how the pool was built and when the liner was last replaced. Age is the biggest driver of whether a new liner is enough or the walls and floor base need work first.
