Enter the planned area — for example the planned-area figure from the
area & solution calculator — and your own
productivity. The pre-filled 20 m²/h is part of the worked example, not an authoritative rate: measure your
own pace on a small section first.
Worked example — fixed entered values
A planned area of 10.56 m² at an entered productivity of 20 m²/h needs 10.56 ÷ 20 = 0.528 h
of cleaning. Adding 30 minutes of setup and two moves of 5 minutes each gives 0.528 + 0.5 + 0.1667 =
1.194667 h = 71.68 min, displayed as 1 h 12 min. The productivity figure is part of the
example — substitute your own measured pace.

Moves × minutes per move ÷ 60
= moving hours
Sum of the three
= total hours
