Inches of water can be converted to a pressure unit using the formula for pressure head. An inch of water column (iwc) is synonymous with an inch of water gauge (iwg). It is defined as the pressure exerted by a column of water of 1 inch in height at defined conditions. For example, 39 Â°F (4 Â°C) at the standard acceleration of gravity; 1 inAq is approximately equal to 249 pascals at 0 Â°C.
