Property Size vs Treatment Coverage Calculator

Determine exactly how much treatment product you need for your property based on size, coverage rate, and number of applications.

Property Size

Property Size Unit

Square Feet (sq ft) Square Yards (sq yd) Acres Hectares Square Meters (sq m)

Product Coverage Rate

Coverage Rate Unit

sq ft per fl oz sq ft per gallon sq ft per lb acres per gallon sq m per liter hectares per liter

Number of Applications

Waste / Overlap Factor (%)

Calculate Treatment Needed

### Treatment Coverage Results

Property Size (sq ft)— Net Product Needed— Waste / Overlap Allowance— Total Product Required— Total for All Applications— Coverage Efficiency—

function proCalc() { const errEl = document.getElementById('pro-error'); const resEl = document.getElementById('pro-result'); errEl.style.display = 'none'; resEl.style.display = 'none';

// --- Validation --- const errors = []; if (isNaN(propSize) || propSize 50) errors.push("Waste factor must be between 0% and 50%.");

if (errors.length > 0) { errEl.innerHTML = errors.join(''); errEl.style.display = 'block'; return; }

// --- Convert property size to sq ft --- // Conversion factors to sq ft const toSqFt = { sqft: 1, sqyd: 9, // 1 sq yd = 9 sq ft acres: 43560, // 1 acre = 43,560 sq ft hectares: 107639.104, // 1 ha = 107,639.104 sq ft sqm: 10.7639 // 1 sq m = 10.7639 sq ft }; const propSizeSqFt = propSize * toSqFt[sizeUnit];

// --- Core formula --- // Net product needed (single application): // Q_net = Property_sqft / Coverage_sqft_per_unit // // With waste factor w (as decimal): // Q_total = Q_net × (1 + w) // // For N applications: // Q_all = Q_total × N

Always read product label for specific application instructions.'; } document.getElementById('pro-out-message').innerHTML = msg;

resEl.style.display = 'block'; }

#### Formula

Step 1 — Convert property to sq ft: Property (sq ft) = Property Size × Conversion Factor

Step 2 — Net product per application: Qnet = Property (sq ft) ÷ Coverage Rate (sq ft per product unit)

Step 3 — Add waste/overlap factor: Qtotal = Qnet × (1 + Waste%/100)

Step 4 — Total for all applications: Qall = Qtotal × Number of Applications

Coverage Efficiency: Efficiency = 1 ÷ (1 + Waste%/100) × 100%
