The number of therms required to heat a house depends on various factors, including the size of the home, insulation quality, local climate, and heating system efficiency. On average, a typical home might use between 50 to 200 therms per month during winter months. For a more accurate estimate, it's best to consider specific energy consumption data from previous heating seasons or consult with a heating professional.
2180 SqFt/500 = 4.4 tons of AC required x12000 BTU/ton = 52800 BTU's Answer is it takes 52800 BTU's to cool a 2180 SqFt home
It is a question of cubic feet, not square feet.
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.
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.
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
That's going to depend on the temperature of the water before you heat it, and on how hot you want it to be when you're done.

What ever it take to keep you warm - and add moisture to keep it toasty.
It typically takes longer for a house to heat up than to cool down. Heating up a house requires actively generating heat, while cooling down a house can often be achieved by simply allowing heat to escape through passive methods like opening windows or turning on fans.
You take the size of your home in square feet and times it by how many rooms you have. A 70,000 BTU furnace will heat a house 1600 square feet.
In the form of heat. The inside of the cardboard can get very hot in the summer.
A few years depends how u take care of it really mine lasted 5 years therms got really rusty
9 yrs
1 at a minimum.

It took 8 years to build the White House.
Your gas pool heater should have a BTU/hr rating for input and output printed on a placard somewhere on the heater. Look for the input rating and divide by 100,000 to get Therms/hr. Assuming your gas is being billed in dollars per Therm, just multiply that rate by your Therms/hr. to get dollars/hour. Multiply this by how many hours you run your gas heater and that's your total pool heater operating cost. Also take in account the time of year temp and wind. If your heating your pool to 78-85 degrees and your pool water is 60 degrees that would be an 18-25 degree temp rise. Your pool is exposed on all sides and this will bleed heat off quickly. It may never achieve the temp desired or not shut down and always call for heat.
