It depends on the furnace, they come in different sizes. There should be a data plate on or in the furnace which lists the input and output rating.

What is the BTU rating for an American Standard gas furnace?
Read the tag on your furnace for the input/output rating. American Standard and all other manufacturers make more than one size furnace.
What is BTU rating of natural gas?
For the purpose of gas rating 1040 btu's/ft3
How much liters of gas does a home furnace use an hour?
Gas usage is measured in cubic feet because it is a vapor. Look at the tag on your furnace and find the input rating, natural gas contains roughly 1000 btu per cubic foot. So divide the input rating by 1000 and you have your answer.
Which has a higher BTU rating natural gas or oil?
Oil has the higher BTU rating Depends. If it is Liquified Nat. Gas then it has the higher rating.
What is the BTU rating of 1 gallon of compressed natural gas?
138,700 btu's
What has a higher BTU rating oil or natural gas?
natural gas
Can 250 CFH gas meter supply a house with a gas furnace and a 200000 BTU water heater?
If your furnace is less then 50000btus then yes.
You are planning to replace your 82 percent efficient gas furnace of 132000 btu with 95 percent efficeient 90000 btu gas furnace Do you gate rebate from the SJG and how much How much it will cost if y?
53533
What is Natural gas BTU rating?
Approx 1000 BTU per standard cubic foot
When operating a high efficiency nat gas forced air furnace and heat pump at what cost ratio or percent of gas therms to kilowatt hours does it make more sense to use the high efficiency furnace only?
There are 3413 btu per kWh and 100,000 btu per therm of natural gas, these are constants. In order to give a correct answer the exact efficiency rating of the high efficiency furnace and the energy costs per kWh and therms would need to be known.
Can you put smaller jetting in your natural gas furnace?
No... that would be underfiring it, causing the inside of the furnace to become a dangerous, sooty mess. If you are looking to save fuel I would say the proper way to go is to have a Manual J heat load calculation done on your home and then if indicated switch to a smaller or more efficient furnace. Furnace size is indicated on the mfr`s unit tag as BTU Input (fuel required to produce stated output). The BTU Output rating is the rated Output after allowing for inefficiency losses (what is lost up the chimney). For example a furnace with an input rating of 100,000 BTU and an output rating of 80,000 BTU is an 80% efficient furnace. Supposing your Heat Load calculation says an 80,000 output is what you need, you can save by switching to a 90% efficient 90,000 Input furnace which will have an Output of 81000 BTU/hour (90,000 x 90%) same Output/less Input (fuel). Input is the fuel usage rating, ie Natural Gas provides 1000 BTU/hour per cubic foot used. Therefore with the 100,000 BTU/hour Input furnace, you will use 100 cubic feet of gas for every hour it is running, You can see this on your gas meter, First note the BTU input of your furnace from the tag, divide that # by 1000 (1000 BTU/hour per cubic ft) then divide the result by 60 (60 minutes in an hour) = X cubic feet. Then with the furnace being the only gas appliance in the house operating watch your meter for 60 seconds and if everything is operating properly the reading you get will equal X.Then do the math in reverse X times 60 times 1000 and you should have the Input # you started with. Now going back to the 100,000 80% furnace vs the 90% efficient furnace, it is easy to see one would save 10 cubic feet of gas per hour of run time by upgrading to the 90% or better. In my neck of the woods that equates to a savings of $1.28 for every 10 hours of run time.
What is the btu rating of LP gas per cubic ft?
2500
