To find the square footage simply multiply the length of the bathroom by the width. For proper airflow in typical installations (when duct losses aren’t calculated), use the 0.4” Ps (static pressure) rating point for correct fan selection. IF your bathroom IS over 100 sq.ft. Ventilation for baths over 100 sq.ft. is calculated based on the fixtures in the bath. Allow 50 CFM for each standard toilet, shower or tub. Whirlpool and jetted tubs are calculated at 100 CFM. Add up the CFMs for all fixtures and you will have calculated the total CFMs required. We recommend that steam showers use a separate fan on a timer so that the fan may be shut off during shower use and then run afterward to dry the shower stall. fantech
