Mini Split BTU Calculator

Calculate BTU for Your Mini Split





What is BTU?

BTU (British Thermal Unit) is a unit of heat used to measure the cooling or heating capacity of an air conditioner. This calculator helps you determine the required BTU based on your room's area, ceiling height, and insulation quality.

Formula

The formula to calculate the required BTU is:

\[ \text{BTU} = \text{Room Volume (sq ft)} \times \text{Insulation Factor} \times 5 \]

Example Calculation

Consider a room with an area of 200 sq ft, a ceiling height of 8 ft, and average insulation:

Using the formula:

\[ \text{Room Volume} = 200 \times 8 = 1600 \text{ cubic ft} \]

\[ \text{BTU} = 1600 \times 1.25 \times 5 = 10000 \text{ BTU} \]

This means the required BTU is 10000 BTU.
