There is no requirement as such. Watts is a use of power. For example, Al Gore uses more power per square foot then most of us do. A well run home will use about 500 KWH's of power in a month (on average). A poorly managed home may well run ten times this amount.

Size only changes the heating and air handling costs. If a home uses gas heating the overall cost will also go way down.

The typical wattage requirement for a house is around 1-3 watts per square foot. This can vary depending on factors like climate, energy-efficient appliances, and heating/cooling systems. It's best to consult with an electrician or energy consultant for a more accurate assessment.

If limited to 40 watts per square foot how do you calculate kWh usage for a month for 1700 square feet?

To calculate the total kWh usage for a month for a space of 1700 square feet limited to 40 watts per square foot, you first multiply the area by the wattage limit (1700 sq ft x 40 Watts/sq ft). This gives you the total power input in watts in that space. Then divide this by 1000 to convert watts to kilowatts and multiply by the number of hours in a month (typically 720 hours) to get the total kWh usage.

How many BTU required to heat a 250 sq ft room?

It will vary on the room type and construction. However you can assume you want 10-15 watts of energy per square ft. That would mean you want 2500-3750 watts total, which would be 8,500 - 12,750 BTU's (3.4 BTUs/Watt).References:How_many_square_feet_does_a_5000_BTU_heater_heathttp://www.diychatroom.com/f18/btus-watts-35066/
