Why is the inch water unit specified at 60°F?

It is temperature-specified because water density changes with temperature, impacting the pressure measurement.

What kind of pressures are measured in petapascal?

Petapascal units quantify extremely large pressures found in high-energy physics and astrophysical phenomena.

Can this converter be used for everyday pressure measurements?

While inch water measurements are common in HVAC and gas systems, the petapascal unit is generally used for extraordinary pressures beyond everyday conditions.
