calc_generator_sizeWhat size generator you need for a power outage: add the running watts of everything you will run at once, then add the single biggest motor starting surge. Enter how many of each item you plan to run at the same time. Formula: Total running watts = Σ (quantity × running watts). Total starting watts = total running watts + the single highest additional starting watts among the items you run, because motors rarely start at the same instant. Amps at 240 V = running watts ÷ 240. Margin is an optional buffer you choose.Read-only
calc_groutHow much grout a tile job takes from the tile size, joint width, joint depth and area, in pounds and bags. The grout density is editable so you can match your product. Formula: Each tile plus its joint is a (L + J) × (W + J) module, of which J × (L + W + J) is joint. Joint share = J(L + W + J) ÷ ((L + J)(W + J)). Grout volume (cu ft) = area × joint share × depth(in) ÷ 12; pounds = volume × density × (1 + waste); bags = ⌈pounds ÷ bag size⌉.Read-only
calc_gutter_sizeCheck whether a gutter can carry the runoff from your roof in a design storm, and how many downspouts it needs. Uses the USDA NRCS gutter and downspout capacity table and your local rainfall intensity. Formula: Runoff Q (cfs) = roof area (sq ft) × rainfall intensity (in/hr) ÷ 43,200 (12 in/ft × 3,600 s/hr); gpm = cfs × 448.8. The gutter is adequate when Q ≤ its NRCS PA-1 capacity at your slope. Downspouts = the larger of ⌈Q ÷ one downspout's PA-1 capacity⌉ and ⌈run length ÷ max length per downspout⌉. Max roof area for the gutter = capacity × 43,200 ÷ intensity.Read-only

calc_pool_alkalinityHow much baking soda raises your pool's total alkalinity, or how much muriatic acid or dry acid lowers it, for your pool size, using published doses per 10,000 gallons. Formula: Batches = |target − current| ÷ 10 × gallons ÷ 10,000. Raise: baking soda (lb) = batches × 1.4. Lower: muriatic acid 31.4% (fl oz) = batches × 26, or sodium bisulfate (lb) = batches × 2.1. Additions: raise no more than about 50 ppm at a time; add no more than 1 quart of acid per 10,000 gallons at a time.Read-only
calc_pool_calcium_hardnessHow much calcium chloride raises your pool's calcium hardness, or how much water to replace to lower it, based on your pool size and fill-water hardness. Formula: Raise: calcium chloride (lb) = (target − current) ÷ 10 × gallons ÷ 10,000 × 1.2 for 77% (0.9 for 100%). Lower (dilution): share to drain = (current − target) ÷ (current − fill water); gallons = share × pool volume.Read-only
calc_pool_chlorineFluid ounces of liquid chlorine (sodium hypochlorite) to raise free chlorine by a target number of ppm, from pool volume and product strength. Formula: Available chlorine (g) = gallons × 3.78541 L/gal × ppm (mg/L) ÷ 1,000. Product (mL) = grams ÷ (strength% ÷ 100), since trade percent is grams of available chlorine per 100 mL. Fl oz = mL ÷ 29.5735.Read-only
calc_pool_heater_sizeHeater output in Btu per hour for an outdoor pool from surface area and temperature rise, using the U.S. Department of Energy formula, plus gas input, the matching standard heat pump size and the time to warm the water. Formula: Temperature rise = desired pool temperature − average air temperature of the coldest month of use. Heater output (Btu/h) = surface area × rise × 12 × rate factor (1, 1.5 or 2). Gas input = output ÷ efficiency. Heat to warm the water once = gallons × 8.34 lb × (desired − starting temperature); hours = that ÷ output, with no losses.Read-only
calc_pool_lsiLangelier Saturation Index for your pool or spa from pH, water temperature, calcium hardness and total alkalinity, using the factor table and formula in state pool rules, plus the pH that would balance it. Formula: SI = pH + TF + CF + AF − 12.1 (12.2 when TDS is above 1,000 ppm). TF, CF and AF come from the temperature, calcium hardness and alkalinity factor table; when a reading falls between rows the table method uses the next greater row. pH for SI = 0: 12.1 − TF − CF − AF.Read-only
calc_pool_saltPounds and bags of pool salt to raise a saltwater pool from its current salt level to the target your chlorine generator needs. Formula: Salt (lb) = gallons × 8.34 lb/gal × (target ppm − current ppm) ÷ 1,000,000. Bags = ⌈lb ÷ bag size⌉.Read-only

Formula: Raise: stabilizer (oz) = (target − current) ÷ 10 × gallons ÷ 10,000 × 13. Lower (dilution): share to drain = (current − target) ÷ (current − fill water); gallons = share × pool volume.Read-only
calc_pool_turnoverThe flow rate (gpm) your pool pump must deliver for a target turnover time, your actual turnover from a flow meter reading, and whether your filter is big enough for that flow. Formula: Required flow (gpm) = gallons ÷ (turnover hours × 60). Actual turnover (hours) = gallons ÷ (measured gpm × 60). Filter max flow = filter area × rated gpm per sq ft.Read-only
calc_pool_volumeGallons in a rectangular pool with a sloped bottom, using average depth. Formula: Gallons = L × W × (shallow + deep)/2 × 7.48052 gal/cu ft.Read-only
calc_rafter_lengthCommon rafter length, ridge rise and roof angle from the horizontal run and pitch, with optional overhang. Formula: Pitch factor = √(1 + (rise/12)²). Rafter length = (run + overhang) × pitch factor. Ridge rise = run × rise ÷ 12. Angle = atan(rise ÷ 12).Read-only
calc_rebarHow much rebar a rectangular slab grid needs: bar count each way, lap splices, total linear feet, 20 ft sticks to order and steel weight from ASTM A615 bar weights. Formula: Bars each way = ⌊(clear span ÷ spacing)⌋ + 1, where clear span = side × 12 − 2 × edge clearance. A run longer than one stick needs ⌈(run − lap) ÷ (stick − lap)⌉ pieces, adding one lap per joint; lap = bar diameters × bar diameter. Linear ft = (bars × run + splices × lap) ÷ 12; sticks = ⌈linear ft × (1 + allowance) ÷ stick length⌉; weight = linear ft × ASTM A615 lb/ft.Read-only
calc_retaining_wallHow many retaining wall blocks you need for a straight wall or a circle (fire pit, tree ring), including the buried course, cap units, base gravel for the leveling pad and drainage rock behind the wall. Block sizes are editable because every product line differs. Formula: Buried depth = max(exposed height ÷ bury ratio, minimum). Courses = ⌈(exposed height + buried depth − cap height) ÷ block height⌉. Blocks per course = ⌈run ÷ block face length⌉, where run = wall length, or π × outside diameter for a circle. Wall blocks = ⌈blocks per course × courses × (1 + waste%)⌉; caps = ⌈run ÷ cap length × (1 + waste%)⌉. Base gravel cu yd = run(ft) × trench width(in) × base depth(in) ÷ 144 ÷ 27; drainage rock cu yd = run(ft) × zone depth(in) × stacked block height(in) ÷ 144 ÷ 27 (straight walls only).Read-only
calc_roofingRoof area from the house footprint and pitch, converted to roofing squares (100 sq ft) and shingle bundles. Formula: Pitch factor = √(1 + (rise/12)²). Roof area = (L + 2×overhang) × (W + 2×overhang) × pitch factor. Squares = area ÷ 100 × (1 + waste%).Read-only
calc_round_pool_volumeGallons in a round or above-ground pool. Formula: Gallons = π × (D/2)² × average depth × 7.48052 (≈ D² × depth × 5.875).Read-only

Formula: Design flow = the larger of the bedroom flow (100 gpd per bedroom up to 4, then +60 per bedroom) and the building-area flow (100 gpd to 750 sq ft, 200 to 1,200, 300 to 2,250, 400 to 3,300, then +60 per extra 750 sq ft or fraction), per Table I and its footnote 4. Septic tank and pump tank minimums come from Table II for that flow. Drainfield area = max(flow, 200 gpd) ÷ the Table III loading rate for the soil and trench or bed.Read-only
calc_sodSquare feet of sod, number of pieces and pallets for a lawn area. Piece size and pallet coverage are editable because they vary by farm and grass type. Formula: Sq ft to buy = L × W × (1 + waste%); pieces = sq ft ÷ (piece length × width ÷ 144); pallets = sq ft ÷ pallet coverage.Read-only
calc_solar_panelPanels needed to offset annual electricity use, from panel wattage, peak sun hours and system losses. Formula: Annual kWh per panel = W/1000 × peak sun hours × 365 × (1 − losses). Panels = ⌈annual use ÷ kWh per panel⌉.Read-only
calc_stair_stringerNumber of risers and treads, exact riser height, total run and stringer length from the floor-to-floor rise, checked against the IRC 7¾ in maximum riser. Formula: Risers = ⌈total rise ÷ max riser⌉; riser height = total rise ÷ risers; treads = risers − 1; total run = treads × tread depth; stringer length = √(rise² + run²).Read-only
calc_tankless_water_heater_sizeSize a tankless water heater from your peak hot-water flow and the rise from winter inlet temperature to your setpoint: required Btu/h, gas input, electric kW and amps. Formula: Temperature rise = setpoint − inlet. Heat output (Btu/h) = gpm × 8.34 lb/gal × 60 min × rise. Gas input = output ÷ efficiency. Electric kW = output ÷ 3,412.14; amps = kW × 1,000 ÷ volts.Read-only
