Hi,

We measure airflow in cubic feet per minute, or CFM, when calculating HVAC systems. Most frequently, we need to figure out the CFM of a space for fans, air cleaners, air conditioners, and other devices.

Strong enough airflow is required to change the entire volume of a 300 square foot room (with an 8 square foot ceiling height) twice each hour. 300 square feet times eight feet equals 2,400 square feet. We need to send 4,800 ft3 per hour in order to change it twice each hour (ACH = 2). An 'ft3 per minute' unit is CFM. Due to this, we must split the total volume by 60, which results in 4,800/60 = 80 CFM.

Air Changes per Hour (ACH or ACPH) is also known as "air exchange rate" or "air change rate" and stands for air changes per hour. It gauges how frequently filtered, clean air will be added to, removed from, or swapped for a volume of air in a space.

How do you calculate ACH or Air Changes per Hour?

Find your device's CFM, multiply it by 60, and then divide the result by the total cubic feet of the space to get your total air changes per hour (ACH).

Q= CFM of filtration device

Vol= Room Volume
