Why is water temperature specified for Inch water units?

Water density varies with temperature, so Inch water pressure is temperature-dependent, here defined at 60°F to standardize measurements.

What is the relationship between millibar and hectopascal?

Millibar and hectopascal are numerically identical units of pressure commonly used in meteorology and atmospheric sciences.

Can I use this converter for pressure readings in gas service applications?

Yes, it is useful for translating small pressure differences in residential gas regulation and related settings.

Key Terminology

Inch water (60°F) [inAq]: A pressure unit defined by the hydrostatic pressure from a 1-inch water column at 60°F, used for small pressure measurements.
Millibar [mbar]: A pressure unit equal to one-thousandth of a bar or 100 pascals, widely used in meteorology and atmospheric pressure measurements.
Hydrostatic Pressure: Pressure exerted by a fluid due to the force of gravity acting on its column.
