You can't convert that.* A BTU is a unit of energy.

* A watt is a unit of power (energy per unit time).

How many watts does a 1000 btu heater use?

For a 1000 BTU heater, the power consumption would be approximately 293 watts. This is because 1 watt is equivalent to 3.41 BTUs.


How many watts equals 1 BTU?

To convert a watt to BTUs, the factor is 1 kilowatt of power = 3412.1416 BTU/hr3.412 BTUs equal a watt.AnswerYour question is meaningless, as these two units measure different quantities. The watt is the SI unit of measurement of power, whereas the BtU is the Imperial unit of energy. So watts cannot be equated to BtUs.


How many watts does home boiler use?

A typical home boiler uses 3000 Watts. 3000 watts is not the correct answer. Watts = volts x amps, or if converting to btu 3000 watts = 10236 btu. At typical household votage of 120, 3000 watts would equal 25 amps and no boiler uses that much current and if your desire is to convert btu to watts I would suspect the average boiler output is far greater than 10K btu. Determine the output in btu/hr of the boiler in question from the MFR`s nameplate and divide by 3.412 3.412btu=1watt/hr. My home boiler uses 3000 watts, it's in my kitchen cupboard and it runs on a 240 v supply.


How many amps needed for a 9000 btu unit at 240 volts?

9000 BTU/hour is equivalent to 2300 watts so the heater will draw 10 amps on 230 volts.


How many watts are needed to heat an area of 162000 sf?

Having this: 400 sqf/ ton and 1 ton= 12000 BTU/h The area to be heated is 162,000 sqf so 162000/400= 405 tons 405 tonsx12000=4'860,000 btuh Converting 4'860,000 btu to watts=1424325.24 watts/hr to heat a 162,000 sf area Regards
