How much water does a water slide need to operate?

The amount of water a water slide needs to operate can vary widely depending on the slide's design, length, and size. Generally, a typical water slide may require anywhere from 50 to 200 gallons of water per minute to provide sufficient flow and ensure a smooth ride. Larger, more complex slides may need even more water to maintain proper operation and safety. Additionally, pools or catch basins at the slide's base might help recirculate water, affecting the overall water requirement.
