What is a dekapascal?

A dekapascal (daPa) is an SI-derived pressure unit equal to 10 pascals, used to measure pressure or mechanical stress.

Where is foot water (60°F) pressure commonly used?

It is applied in low-pressure measurements involving hydrostatic pressure in HVAC, fluid systems, and laboratory contexts.

Why is temperature important in this conversion?

Foot water pressure is based on water density at 60°F, so temperature variations can affect pressure accuracy.
