1 kW is approximately 3400 BTU/hr of cooling
With 28,000 BTUs, the Friedrich SL28L30* has the most BTUs.
A small room is about 5,000 BTUs. Most people don't have a room that would require more than 10,000 BTUs.
60,000 Btu's 12,000 Btu's = 1 ton
The Carrier 38YCC048300 air conditioner has a cooling capacity of 4 tons. This is indicated by the "048" in the model number, which typically represents the unit's capacity in thousands of BTUs per hour. In this case, 48,000 BTUs equals 4 tons, as 1 ton of cooling is equivalent to 12,000 BTUs.
Perhaps the highest btu available in a portable air conditioner is 14000 BTUs. The air conditioner that has this high btu is the Sunpentown WA-1410H, which is portable.
30000 BTUs
The energy requirements for a 120-volt air conditioner depend on its cooling capacity, measured in British Thermal Units (BTUs). A typical 120-volt air conditioner with a cooling capacity of 10,000 BTUs requires around 1,000 watts of power to operate efficiently.
The Tempstar air conditioner model number N4A360AKC300 has a tonnage of 3 tons. This is indicated by the model number, where "360" typically represents the cooling capacity in BTUs, specifically 36,000 BTUs, which corresponds to 3 tons (1 ton = 12,000 BTUs).
BTUs (British Thermal Units) are a unit of energy used to measure the amount of heat a cooling or heating system can remove or add to a space. Air conditioner tonnage refers to the cooling capacity of an air conditioning unit. One ton of cooling is equivalent to 12,000 BTUs per hour. So, the higher the tonnage of an air conditioner, the more BTUs it can remove from the air per hour.
An HVAC system is rated in British Thermal Units (BTUs). For example, a 2-ton air conditioning system is 24,000 BTUs. That's 12,000 BTUs per ton. So a 3.5-ton air conditioner is a 42,000 BTUs.
The Heil air conditioner model number NAC036GKA5 has a tonnage of 3 tons. This is indicated by the model number, where "036" typically represents the cooling capacity in BTUs, and 1 ton is equivalent to 12,000 BTUs, making 36,000 BTUs equal to 3 tons.
