Duct Area Calculator
Formula notes
Estimate air changes per hour from room volume and airflow. The calculation uses the visible inputs, applies allowances where shown, and rounds ordering-style quantities up where practical.
Worked example
Example: enter the default values above, review the air changes, then adjust the allowance to suit supplier data and site conditions.
Move from estimate to record
Use Zektrx to turn planning figures into jobs, quotes, RAMS and purchase lists.

FAQ
Common checks before using this result.
Is the air change rate calculator result final?
No. It is an estimating prompt only. Check measurements, supplier specifications, product data, site conditions and competent advice before ordering materials or starting work.
Can I save the result inside Zektrx?
Public calculator results are for lead-generation and planning today. App calculators can later save results to jobs, quotes, RAMS, stock and purchase orders.
