Energy efficiency ratio to kilowatts per ton
Type a value in EER to get it in kW/ton instantly.
1kW/ton
That's 1.1× as efficient as an air-source heat pump, while a modern split air conditioner is 1.08× more efficient. Every kWh of electricity moves 3.517 kWh of heat.
Convert the other way: kW/ton to EER
What it means
How efficient is that?
These are steady-state ratings. Seasonal figures such as SEER and SCOP average over a whole year of weather and cannot be converted exactly from a single rating.
The math
How to convert EER to kW/ton
EER = COP × 3.412 (BTU per watt-hour), and kW/ton = 3.517 ÷ COP.
Example: 12 EER = 1 kW/ton.

Energy efficiency ratio (EER)
The US rating: BTU per hour of cooling per watt.
Kilowatts per ton (kW/ton)
Chiller plants: electricity per ton of cooling. Lower is better.
