what is the meaning of Air condition "TON"

Answer Posted / parvesh1989

A ton of cooling capacity is the amount of cooling that
would be provided by melting a ton of ice. Thus, a central
air conditioning system that is rated as a 2-ton system
would provide the same cooling as melting two tons of ice
per day (24-hour period).


Ton vs BTU

A ton is equal to 12,000 BTUs. Thus, a 2-ton air conditioner
is equivalent to a 24,000 BTU air conditioner.

A BTU is the quantity of heat required to raise 1 pound of
water by 1 degree Fahrenheit.
BTUH (British Thermal Units per Hour)

Air conditioner cooling capacity is often measured in either
BTUH or tons. 1 ton = 12,000 BTUH.
