What is a dekapascal (daPa)?

Dekapascal is an SI-derived pressure unit equal to 10 pascals, used to measure force per unit area in scientific and diagnostic settings.

Why use inch water (60°F) as a pressure unit?

Inch water (60°F) quantifies small pressure differences by measuring hydrostatic pressure exerted by a column of water at a specific temperature, making it suitable for HVAC and gas service applications.

Can this converter be used for other temperature conditions?

This conversion is specific to inch water at 60°F, as water density varies with temperature affecting pressure values.
