A BTU is the amount of energy required to raise the temperature of 1 pound of water 1 degree Fahrenheit (F) at or near 39.2 degrees F and 1 atmosphere of pressure.
Electric heaters are rated in KW, not BTU's
3413 BTU's = 1 KW-hr.

How many BTUs will a 10-kilowatt heater produce if operated for 1 hour?
A 10-kilowatt heater produces 34,120 BTUs per hour.
How many BTUs in a 6 ft baseboard heater?
The number of BTUs in a 6 ft baseboard heater would depend on the model and specifications of the heater. On average, a 6 ft baseboard heater can generate around 1,000-1,500 BTUs per linear foot, so a 6 ft baseboard heater may produce approximately 6,000-9,000 BTUs.
What are the BTUs for the Lasko Electric Ceramic 1500 watt Tower Heater with remote control number 751320?
1500 watts is equivalent to 5118 BTU per hour. 1500 watt-hours is equivalent to 5118 BTU.
How many Btus must be removed from one pound of water at 200f fro it to end up as ice at 30f?
To determine the BTUs that must be removed from one pound of water at 200°F to convert it to ice at 30°F, we need to account for several steps: cooling the water from 200°F to 32°F (the freezing point), the phase change from water to ice at 32°F, and then cooling the ice from 32°F to 30°F. Cooling the water from 200°F to 32°F requires about 168 BTUs (1 BTU cools 1 pound of water by 1°F). Freezing the water at 32°F requires the removal of 80 BTUs (latent heat of fusion). Cooling the ice from 32°F to 30°F requires an additional 2 BTUs. In total, approximately 250 BTUs must be removed (168 + 80 + 2 = 250 BTUs).
How many amps will a 5200 btu heater pull?
To determine the amperage draw of a 5200 BTU heater, you can use the formula: Amps = BTUs / (Voltage x Efficiency). For example, if the heater operates at 120 volts and has an efficiency of about 100%, it would pull approximately 43.3 amps (5200 BTU / 120 volts). However, many small heaters operate at lower voltages (like 120V), so it's essential to check the specific heater's specifications for accurate amperage.
How many BTUs does it take to raise the temperature in a 40 gallon water heater 60 degrees F?
To calculate the BTUs needed to raise the temperature of a 40-gallon water heater by 60 degrees Fahrenheit, you can use the formula: BTUs = gallons × temperature rise × 8.34. For a 40-gallon heater, it would be 40 gallons × 60°F × 8.34 BTU/gallon°F, resulting in approximately 20,016 BTUs. Therefore, it takes about 20,016 BTUs to achieve that temperature increase.
How many BTUs will a 10-kilowatt heater produce if operated for 1 hour?
A 10-kilowatt heater produces 34,120 BTUs per hour.
What is the Gallon Per Hour use of a kerosene heater?
Depends on the BTUs of the heater.
How many btus per foot of baseboard?
The number of BTUs per foot of baseboard heating can vary depending on the type and size of the baseboard unit. Typically, standard hydronic (hot water) baseboard heaters emit around 400 to 600 BTUs per foot, while electric baseboard heaters can produce about 250 to 300 BTUs per foot. The specific output also depends on factors like water temperature and the design of the heater. Always refer to manufacturer specifications for precise information.

How can I determine how many BTUs I need for an air conditioner?
A small room is about 5,000 BTUs. Most people don't have a room that would require more than 10,000 BTUs.
How long will a 100 pound tank last on a 15000 btu wall heater?
To estimate how long a 100-pound propane tank will last with a 15,000 BTU wall heater, you first need to know that propane contains about 91,500 BTUs per gallon, and there are approximately 37 gallons in a 100-pound tank. This results in about 8.8 million BTUs total. If the heater runs continuously at 15,000 BTUs, the tank would last roughly 8.8 million BTUs ÷ 15,000 BTUs/hour = about 586 hours. However, actual usage may vary based on heating cycles and efficiency.
