Natural Gas is measured in Therms or BTUs. A therm is a measurement of the amount of heat energy in natural gas, equal to 100,000 BTUs. A BTU, or British Thermal Unit, is the quantity of heat required to raise the temperature of one pound of water by one degree Fahrenheit. This calculator is based on $1.00 per therm.

Cost to Operate = usage (hours or load) x (BTUs/100,000) x price per therm
   or
Cost to Operate = usage (hours or load) x therms x price per therm

Conversion Table

1 BTU = .293 watt hours
100,000 BTU = 1 therm
3,413 BTU = 1 kilowatt hour
