Default paint calculation

I need to pain 2800 sf house that we just bought. Guy in Sherwin
Williams said I need to calculate
1 Galon/400sf for walls 1 coat . Is that reasonable calculations? This
is bug house and I am trying to plan my budget.


Yes, 400sf seems to be a standard number for paint. My own experience is
less than 400sf coverage with an airless setup. If it was me, I would budget
for 200sf and hope to get close to 400sf.
