Determining the Model and Quantity of Air Cleaners for Your Application

For a faxed or mailed quotation, please send us the measurements of the area you wish to clean and the number of air changes/hour (see chart below) you wish to accomplish. We'll do the work for you...just send us an email

Use the following table to estimate the number of air changes
required for your application:

Pollutant Concentration	Suggested Number of Air Changes/Hour	Typical Application for Suggested Number of Air Changes/Hour
Low	4 to 8	Household-(allergies/dust), Office Areas, etc.
Medium	9 to 12	Beauty Salons, Computer Rooms, etc.
High	13 to 16	Restaurants, Night Clubs, Bingo Halls, Bowling Alleys, Casinos, Cigar Bars, etc.

 

Each LakeAir brand cleaner provides a level of air cleaning capacity which is measured in cubic feet per minute (CFM). Every model listed on these pages has a cfm rating which will help you in determining which model you would need to effectively clean the area which is polluted.

Step #1: Calculate the volume of the area to be cleaned in cubic feet.

Length x Width x Height of area = Cubic Volume

Step #2: Divide the volume by 60, which represents minutes/hour

Volume of area / 60 minutes per hour = Cubic Feet Required for ONE Air Change /Hour

Step #3: Multiply the number of cfm's required in step #2 by the number of air changes desired from the chart above.

Cubic Feet per Minute (#2) x # of Air Changes/Hour (from chart above) = Cubic Feet per Minute required for this application.

Step #4: Compare the Cubic Feet per Minute (CFM) required with the cfm rating of the units you are considering. If the cfm required is more than any of the cfm ratings on an individual unit, you will need more than one unit for that application.
