Question

What is 6,000 btu/hr in tons cause I've been looking everywhere for how many pounds a 6,000 btu/hr is on a small AKQ06LZG1 window unit?

Answer 1

To convert BTU/hr (British Thermal Units per hour) to tons of cooling capacity, you can use the following conversion:

1 ton of cooling = 12,000 BTU/hr

So, to convert 6,000 BTU/hr to tons:

6,000 BTU/hr ÷ 12,000 BTU/hr per ton = 0.5 tons

Therefore, a 6,000 BTU/hr window air conditioning unit like the AKQ06LZG1 has a cooling capacity of 0.5 tons.
