Frequently asked questions

Is L/s a volume or mass rate?

It is a volume rate, so it shifts slightly with air density at altitude or high temperature.

How many L/s per person is typical?

Office standards commonly ask for 8–10 L/s per occupant.

What do I need to enter into the L/s to CFM Calculator?

Just 1 value: airflow. Every field starts with a realistic example, so you can change one number at a time and watch the result update instantly.

How does the L/s to CFM Calculator work out the answer?

One litre per second equals 2.11888 CFM. It applies the formula CFM = L/s x 2.11888 and shows the working so you can check each step by hand.
