Hot times are coming and you may find yourself buying a new air conditioner, but how do you figure out how many BTUs you need? Silencedotcom over in the Consumerist Forums posted this BTU guide: Length of Room x Width of Room [in feet] = Area (Area x 30) + 2000 = BTUs you need. UPDATE: This Energy Star chart is what you need: â¢ If the room is shaded, reduce the BTUs by 10%. â¢ If the room is very sunny, increase the BTUs by 10%. â¢ If you plan on placing the air conditioning unit in your kitchen, add 4,000 BTUs.
