Sizes the deodorant a thermal or ULV fogging pass consumes.
Example
You enter
- Volume to treat (ft³ = area x ceiling height) 8000
- Label dose rate (oz per 1,000 ft³) 5
- Fogging passes 1
You get
- Deodorant to mix 40
- Deodorant (gallons) 0.31 gal
Checked against published worked examples from: ANSI/IICRC S700 deodorization.
Details, formula, and sources
ScopeDosed by structure volume against a label rate in ounces per 1,000 cubic feet across one or more passes: the ounces to mix and the gallons. Fogging penetrates the porous paths the smoke took, the counterpart to ozone shock. The label rate and dwell govern; a thermal fogger produces a hot fog from an open flame, so the space is unoccupied and a fire watch applies. Sizes quantity only. IICRC S700 governs.
Formula or tabledeodorant_oz = (structure_volume_ft3 / 1000) x dose_oz_per_1000ft3 x treatments; deodorant_gal = deodorant_oz / 128.
Source and editionVolume-based fogging dosage and the 128 fl oz/gal constant, by name; ANSI/IICRC S700 fire and smoke restoration. Label-rate arithmetic, not edition-bound.
Free accessThe dosage is public label arithmetic; the fogging method is named in the published IICRC S700.
