About this calculator
BTUs are common in HVAC (heaters, ACs) and boilers in the US. 1 BTU is the energy to raise 1 lb of water by 1°F — about 1055 J. 100,000 BTU is roughly 29.3 kWh, or one therm of natural gas. Useful when comparing electric vs gas heating costs.
Frequently asked
BTU is energy. BTU/hr is power (rate). A 24,000 BTU/hr AC delivers 24,000 BTU per hour — that's ~7 kW of cooling.
