Dear convert-me.com forum visitors,
Our forum has been available for many years. In September 2014 we decided to switch it to read-only mode. Month after month we saw less posts with questions and answers from real people and more spam posts. We were spending more and more resources cleaning the spam until there were less them 1 legitimate message per 100 spam posts. Then we decided it's time to stop.
All the posts in the forum will be available and searchable. We understand there are a lot of useful information and we aren't going to remove anything. As for the new questions, you can always ask them on
convert-me.com FaceBook pageThank you for being with us and sorry for any inconveniences this could caused.

All,
I am in need of converting my known BTU's to KW for power consumption and tons (hvac) for a/c useage and cooling needs.
I have a known btu factor of 264,430 btu/h.
I have used the conversion site, thanks by the way, and came up with the 77.5 KW in power consumption but cannot find a way to convert this to tons for cooling needs.
Anyone?

1 KW of electrical power = .2846 Tons of cooling. Therefore, 1 ton of cooling = 3.51 KW of electrical power

I understand 1 ton of a/c equals 12,000 btu's, is there a conversion for a ton of a/c to sq foot? Brian

22 Tons of Cooling (12,000 BTU per ton of cooling)

TO CONVERT BTU TO TONS
1 TON = 12,000 BTU/hr
in your case you BTU/hr is
264,430/12,000 = 22.035 TONS
