The Btu (th), or thermochemical British thermal unit, is the heat energy required to raise one pound of water by one degree Fahrenheit based on thermochemical calorie values.

Why convert Btu (th) to therm?

Converting to therm units helps consolidate smaller energy values into industry-standard units commonly used for billing and energy management in natural gas applications.

Can this conversion vary?

Yes, slight variations occur due to different BTU definitions, regional standards, and natural gas compositions affecting therm values.
