btu = the amount of heat needed to raise one pound of water one degree F
To calculate the BTU (British Thermal Units) needed to heat a space, you need to consider the area of the space, the desired temperature increase, the insulation levels, and any additional heat sources. You can use a BTU calculator or consult with a heating specialist to determine the appropriate BTU rating for your space.
The answer: 17070 BTU The math: 3414 BTU = 1 KVA (KW) so 5 KVA = 17070 BTU
1 BTU (British Thermal Unit) is approximately equal to 1055.06 Joules.
There are approximately 0.00094781712 BTU in one joule.
There are 100,000 BTU (British Thermal Units) in a therm.
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.

Many factors figure in other than square footage. Such as the height of the ceiling and number of windows. But, for most houses, 20 to 22 btu per square foot will do. 40,000 to 45,000 btu should do.
measure the square footage of your house when you go to purchase your furnace. Then they can change that figure to BTU's.
The BTU usage depends on the size generator. What you need to know to figure this out is the fuel type (propane or natural gas) and the size of the generator (usually measured in kilowatts or KW) and the size of the engine. Once you know these things, you can calculate the BTU. The easiest way is to ask the sales person or manufacturer. They can tell you the BTU.
