BTU to Tons

Batch BTU to Tons Converter

Paste one capacity per line and choose the unit shared by the list.

The list is converted in your browser and never uploaded.

One number per line; up to 200.

Paste format

Put one value per line, up to 200 lines. Blank lines are skipped and don't count.

Thousands separators are fine inside a value, like 24,000. Don't put several values on one line.

Use a dot for decimals, like 1.5. A decimal comma such as 1,5 is rejected because it is ambiguous.

Every value uses the input unit you choose. If the list mixes units, split it and convert each part on its own.

Export columns

The CSV has one row per value, in the order you pasted, with these columns:

row
Position in the list. Blank lines are not counted.
input_value
The value as read, or the text as pasted if it couldn't be read.
input_unit
The unit you chose for the list.
BTU_per_hour
Cooling capacity in BTU/hr.
refrigeration_tons
Cooling capacity in refrigeration tons (12,000 BTU/hr each).
cooling_kW
Cooling capacity in kW. Not the electricity the AC uses.
size_class
The AC size name the value matches, like 1.5 ton, a between-sizes note, or empty.
status
ok, or the reason code for a row that couldn't be read.

Numbers have up to 12 significant digits and no thousands separators.

A cell that starts with =, +, -, @, a tab or a carriage return gets a leading apostrophe, so a spreadsheet shows it as text instead of running it as a formula.

Fix invalid rows

A line that isn't a valid number keeps its place. The table shows its line number and the reason; every other line still converts, and nothing is dropped.

Fix the line in the box and convert again. In the CSV, that row keeps the text you pasted, the result columns stay empty and status holds the reason code.
