What is 1 bar in terms of foot water (60°F) [ftAq]?

1 bar equals approximately 33.4883 foot water (60°F) [ftAq], representing the hydrostatic pressure of a water column at 60°F.

Where is foot water (60°F) [ftAq] commonly used?

It is commonly used for low-pressure measurements in HVAC systems, laboratory manometers, and small pump pressure evaluations.

Can I use this conversion for any water temperature?

No, the conversion assumes water temperature at exactly 60°F and standard gravity; different conditions may alter accuracy.
