From Wikipedia:

Air conditioner equipment power in the U.S. is often described in terms of "Ton." A "ton of refrigeration" is defined as the cooling power of one Short_ton(2000 Pound_(mass) or 907 Kilogram) of ice melting in a 24-Hourperiod. This is equal to 12,000 BTUper hour, or 3517 Watt.Answers.comResidential central air systems are usually from 1 to 5 tons (3 to 20 Kilowatt(kW)) in capacity.
