HVAC · Air exchange arithmetic

Convert room volume, ACH, and CFM.

Calculate airflow for your entered air-change target and reverse-check measured or available airflow against the same rectangular room volume.

Transparent calculation

CFM = room cubic feet × ACH ÷ 60.

The reverse check multiplies measured CFM by 60 and divides by room volume. Both directions use values you enter.
