The way to answer this question is convert all factors to power. Voltage, current, watts, horsepower, BTUs. I will save you some time. They cost the same to operate. One thing to remember in your career, watts = watts no matter what(watt)...pkazsr You already have the answer. 10,000 btu/hr is 10,000 btu/hr, or the equivalent number of watts either way. There may be some minor difference because the higher voltage unit will pull half the amps to deliver the same power.

The cooling capacity is the same. It all depends on the application as to which is better. If you have a large room then the 1 10000 Btu unit would be the better fit and probably cheaper. But if you need to cool two small rooms then the 2 5000 Btu units would probably be better.
10000 BTU per hour is equivalent to approximately 2.93 kW.
10000
10000Btu is 3.93hp
130000 btu
Airconditiong and heating pwer are rated in BTU's not RPM's this unit is 10000 BTU's
It depends on the cost of electricity and the cost of natural gas in your area. Generally, using a 5000 BTU natural gas heater is cheaper than using a 1500 watt electric heater. Natural gas is typically more cost-effective for heating compared to electricity.
Ratings are per hour. Divide 10,000 by 60 minutes per hour.
Natural gas= 1000 btu per cubic ft, propane =2500 btu per cubic ft and #2 fuel oil = 140,000 btu per gallon. Check the availability & prices in your area and you can figure your answer.
A cord of wood typically has a heating value of around 20 to 25 million British Thermal Units (Btu) depending on the type of wood and its moisture content.
