Guide: Whether it is a steam boiler or a hot water boiler, we often use tons to express it, such as a 1 ton steam boiler and a 1 ton hot water boiler. So, what does a 1-ton steam boiler and a 1-ton hot water boiler mean? Gas-fired hot water boilers are mostly used for heating. What is the heating area of a 1-ton gas-fired hot water boiler?

Whether it is a steam boiler or a hot water boiler, we often use tons to express it, such as a 1 ton steam boiler and a 1 ton hot water boiler. So, what does a 1-ton steam boiler and a 1-ton hot water boiler mean? Gas-fired hot water boilers are mostly used for heating. What is the heating area of a 1-ton gas-fired hot water boiler?

1. The meaning of 1 ton steam boiler and 1 ton hot water boiler

　　Fast installation boilers 1 ton steam boiler and 1 ton hot water boiler are both idioms in the industry. A 1-ton steam boiler means that the boiler’s rated evaporation per hour is 1 ton of steam, which is also called boiler capacity or boiler output; the meaning of a 1-ton hot water boiler is relatively complicated. In fact, a 1 ton hot water boiler means that the heat output per hour is equivalent to the heat of 1 ton of steam. So a 1 ton hot water boiler is actually an old saying. Now the unit for calibrating the capacity or output of the hot water boiler is MW (megawatts) instead of "tons". This MW refers to the output per hour. Heat. In the industry, steam boilers are still calibrated in "tons", while hot water boilers are calibrated in MW. What! What is the relationship between MW and the "ton" of a steam boiler? In fact, the calibrated "total heat output" of a hot water boiler in the past means that the difference between a "1 ton hot water boiler" and a "1 ton steam boiler" The total heat output is equal. 0.7MW = 1 ton of steam. Of course, this is an approximately equal value rather than an absolute equal value. This is a common comparison method in the industry. In the table of soda water characteristics, we can find that the heating value per kilogram of steam is approximately 666 kcal, and the total heating value per ton of steam is approximately equal to 0.7MW. The relationship between them is like this. In summary, whether it is a steam boiler or a hot water boiler, its tonnage refers to the "total heat output".

2. Heating area of 1 ton gas boiler

　　The heating area of a 1 ton gas boiler is about 6000-8000 square meters. The specifics should be determined according to the actual situation:

　　1. Temperature in the area where you are located: The thermal calculation requires very detailed requirements, such as heating period time, maximum temperature and minimum temperature, etc.

　　2. The properties and structure of the heating boiler building: for example, is it a civil residence, an office building, or a factory, and whether the building is brick-concrete or light-weight.

　　3. Is it geothermal or radiator: Knowing these can you simply estimate the data you need.

The meaning of 1 ton steam boiler and 1 ton hot water boiler and the heating area of 1 ton gas boiler are introduced above. For more questions, please consult our company. The selection of gas-fired boilers is not a generalization. Users can choose a suitable heating boiler according to the actual situation.
