BEHIND THE NUMBERS

How this calculation works.

Tile measured bays separately with a fixed batt format, show unreused cuts and round the combined batt count to packs. Batts = Σ ceil(bay width / batt width) × ceil(bay length / batt length) × count; packs = ceil(batts / pack).

Batts = Σ ceil(bay width / batt width) × ceil(bay length / batt length) × count; packs = ceil(batts / pack).Calculated with normalised units

A worked example

Illustrative inputs only. Product properties and design dimensions are not recommendations for your project.

Batt packs to purchase: 3 packs

Each bay is tiled separately in the fixed batt orientation. Offcuts are not reused between bays. Dimensions do not establish fit or thermal performance.

Before you purchase

Use dimensions from your plan and properties from your chosen product. Any design spacing, section or fixing pattern must already be specified.

All product dimensions, coverage, density, allowances and joining rules must come from your supplied plan or selected product. No building-code values are inserted.

Method: dimensional arithmetic and user-supplied specifications. Software checks: 2026-10-05. Calculation and review policy.
