Many factors figure in other than square footage. Such as the height of the ceiling and number of windows. But, for most houses, 20 to 22 btu per square foot will do. 40,000 to 45,000 btu should do.
what as the cost of heat for a 1200 square foot home in 2004
It takes 1000 calories to heat 1 litre of water 1 degree C.
simply put r-value= temperature differenceXareaXtime/heat loss the standard uses 75degrees on one side of a substance and the heat loss is measured across the substance this heat loss is then quantified by a temperature measurement of the noon standard temperature this becomes the temperature difference in the equation. the area is just that, in square feet and the time is in hours and the heat loss in Btu's. you dandan the heatin man
Roughly 4200 seconds, since the specific heat of water is around 4.2J/gK (ie it takes 4.2 joules to raise 1 gram by 1 Kelvin); 1 litre = 1000 grams, 1 Celcius (centigrade) = 1K, 1W = 1J/s.
It takes about 50,000 btus to heat 1000 square feet
Rule of thumb is 1.5 tons per 1000 square feet of home.
50,000 btu
How much does it cost to heat a 1000 square ft home with liquid propane gas in Mass
about 12,000
800 to 1000 sq ft
depends upon the square footage of the house or what devices will be operated from the house, if it is 1000 sq. ft. or lessand will havemostly gas appliances and gas heat a 100 amp but anything above that much sq. footage with a heat pump and electric stove/oven/ water heater and I would put in a 200 amp.
Electric costs about 50% more than natural gas.
approx 80,000 if your house has average insulation and heat loss.
Will a 40,000 btu furnace be enough to heat my 1375 square foot middle unit town house.
There are to many variables to effectively say but gas generally costs less than electric and older electric would use even more than new electric.
You take the size of your home in square feet and times it by how many rooms you have. A 70,000 BTU furnace will heat a house 1600 square feet.
