Formula
Perimeter: P = 2(L + W). Gross area: S = P × H. Net area: S_net = S − windows × window_area − doors × door_area.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do you calculate the total wall area?
Find the room perimeter P = 2(L + W), then multiply by the ceiling height: S = P × H.
How are windows and doors accounted for?
Subtract the total area of windows and doors from the gross wall area to get the net (paintable) area.
What are the default window and door sizes?
Default window area is 1.5 m² and default door area is 1.8 m². You can adjust these values.
What is net wall area used for?
Net area helps estimate the amount of paint, wallpaper, or other finishing materials needed for a room.
