Let our tool support you in planning your ventilation and air-conditioning systems.
EN 16798‑1 replaces the former EN 15251 and is the current basis for assessing indoor air quality. It determines the outdoor air requirement using the additive method: the person-related share covers CO₂ and occupants’ bioeffluents, while the building-related share covers emissions from the building structure and furnishings. Only the sum of both shares gives the outdoor air requirement and enables a more differentiated assessment than the sole use of fixed guideline values.
Note: A building-wide calculation is only possible if the same air quality applies to all rooms. If uses differ, calculate the areas separately.
The air volume flow calculator supports engineers and planners in the rapid design of ventilation systems – directly in the browser, without any additional software installation.
