About the refrigeration tons unit

One refrigeration ton (TR, also "ton of refrigeration" or AC ton) is the cooling rate that freezes 1 short ton of ice per day: 1 TR = 12,000 BTU/h ≈ 3.5169 kW. It is a unit of cooling power, so "btu to tons" for air conditioners means BTU/h ÷ 12,000. A "2-ton" AC removes 24,000 BTU/h; a "3-ton" 36,000 BTU/h.
