(Last Updated On: 2024-10-15)

Discover how to effortlessly convert therms to kiloliters (kl) of fuel oil equivalent with our precise tool, designed to simplify your energy calculations.

What are Therm and kiloliter

Definition of Therm

A therm is a unit of heat energy equivalent to 100,000 British Thermal Units (BTUs). It is commonly used in the heating, venting, and air conditioning (HVAC) industry, as well as for natural gas billing. Defined by its energy output, one therm can raise the temperature of a given amount of water, providing a measure of energy consumption and production.

Definition of kiloliter

A kiloliter (kl) is a unit of volume equal to 1,000 liters or about 264.172 US gallons. Often used for larger quantities of liquid, such as in trade or industrial contexts, it measures the space a liquid occupies, which can be converted to a weight or mass equivalent based on the liquid's density.
