What is BTU(British Thermal Unit)?

British Thermal Unit is an estimation of the amount of energy required to heat 1lb of water from 39°F to 40°F and is roughly equal to 1.055 joules. A single BTU is more or less equal to the amount of energy produced by burning a single wooden match from end to end. 1 watt is approximately  3.412 BTU per hour. For example, natural gas to oil is one of the most popular BTU.

BTU = Temperature Rise (∆ T) x CFM x 1.08.

How is Your Room BTU Requirement Calculated?

  • A room’s BTU condition is based upon the cubic volume of the space,  the height, length, and width of the room will be multiplied by four and what is above, below, and beside the room.
  • Now, we can determine the expected heat loss for your room and provide you with a BTU output to heat the space efficiently by which we mean to a comfortable temperature and at the lowest possible fuel costs you.
  • Finally, after all this, you will get the total heat produced in the room.
