How many BTU's will it take to heat 320 sq ft?

It is a question of cubic feet, not square feet.


What will take in more heat R-5 insulatation or R-35 insulation?

R-5 insulation will take in more heat compared to R-35 insulation. This is because the R-value measures the insulation's resistance to heat flow; a lower R-value indicates less resistance and therefore allows more heat to pass through. In contrast, R-35 insulation provides significantly greater resistance to heat transfer, making it more effective at keeping heat out in summer and retaining warmth in winter.


How many cubit feet of natural gas will it take to heat 100 sq ft?

A cubit = 1.5 feet so a cubit foot = 1.5 square feet, is a measure of area. The amount of natural gas required to heat a space needs a volume measure, a measurement in terms of its area is without any meaning.


How many btu's does it take to heat a basement room 150 square feet?

Standard practice holds that it takes 5000 BTUs to heat a room 100 to 150 sq ft Figure on adding another 1000 BTUs for every 50 or so sq ft added. Hence , 400 to 450 sq ft would need about 10,000 BTUs


How many btu's would it take to heat a 2400 square foot house?

To properly size any furnace or ac unit a heat loss calculation should be done(heat gain for ac). Since two houses of the same size, one insulated well and the other not should not have the same size HVAC equipment. Therein lies the problem of sizing by sq ft. Do a search for HVAC Calc for a better idea of what I mean. This can be done by the home owner but is better left to a pro. Either way you will wind up better off and with equipment that suits what you actually need. Thus eliminating paying more for oversized equipment and shortening it`s lifespan by unecessary cycling on & off and also getting the most efficiency for your fuel $`s.
