Heating units are not measured in tons as AC units are. Heating capacity is referred to in 1000`s of btu output per hour of operation. The ratio of input vs output = the efficiency rating, for example if your home furnace is rated at 100,000 btu per hour input and 80,000 btu per hour output . it is 80% efficient (when it was new). For AC 12.000 btu = 1 ton.

How many BTU's per hour is in 1 ton of refrigeration?
1 ton = rate of heat absorption to melt 1 ton of ice in 24 hours =12,000 BTU per hour = 3,516 watts.
How many BTU per hour is 2.5 ton in HVAC?
A 2.5 ton A/c is the same as 30,000 BTU's 1 ton = 12,000 BTU's
What is the difference between a 2 ton or 3 ton heat pump?
A standard ton of refrigeration is 12,000 BTU/h (3517 W). There for a 2 ton unit is a 24,000 BTU/h unit and a 3 ton unit is a 36,000 BTU/h unit.
How many BTU per hour equal 5 ton of air condistioning?
60 000 thousand btus
