Thanks to my good sources, I now know that “BTU” stands for “British Thermal Unit.” It’s the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of one pound of water from 64 to 65 degrees Fahrenheit.
Setting aside the totally arbitrary and random nature of the unit, I purchased a machine that can crank out EIGHT THOUSAND of this unit of heat!!!
Ummm, in some amount of time, using some amount of energy, and distributing it outside of said machine at some efficiency.
But EIGHT THOUSAND of them!!!
