About These Units

BTU per Second (BTU/s)

BTU per second (BTU/s) equals 1,055 watts or 3,600 BTU per hour. BTU/s measures high-power thermal processes, industrial burners, and rapid heating applications. Rarely used compared to BTU/h; primarily appears in engineering calculations.

BTU per Hour (BTU/h)

BTU per hour (BTU/h or BTUH) measures heating and cooling capacity. Air conditioners are rated in BTU/h (window unit: 5,000-12,000 BTU/h, central AC: 24,000-60,000 BTU/h). Furnaces range from 40,000-200,000 BTU/h. One BTU/h equals 0.293 watts.
