Cfm Usage Calculator

A quick way to determine actual cfm usage. Site visits and evaluations are still recommended to ensure the proper compressor package is quoted for the application.

Count Tools

Count the total number of tools in use at one time and we’ll calculate the cfm required to operate.


Count ALL other equipment that uses air.
