Calculadora de BTU para HVAC — Fórmula
## BTU Calculation
**Base BTU = Square Footage × 20**
Adjustments:
- High ceilings: +5% per foot above 8ft
- Sun exposure: ±10%
- Extra occupants: +600 BTU each beyond 2
- Kitchen: add 4,000 BTU
**1 ton of AC = 12,000 BTU**
**Base BTU = Square Footage × 20**

Ejemplo Resuelto
300 sq ft room, 8ft ceiling, average sun, 2 occupants.
- Base BTU = 300 × 20 = 6,000
- Ceiling factor = 1.0 (standard height)
- Sun factor = 1.0 (average)
- Occupant BTU = 0 (2 is baseline)
- Total = 6,000 BTU
- Tonnage = 6,000 / 12,000 = 0.5 ton
