HBG COST FORMULAS
Propane conversion from gallons of propane to therms for use in chart below: 1 Therm = 1.0929 gallons of propane.
Multiply the cost of 1 gallon of propane by 1.0929 to determine the propane cost per therm.
Example: Propane = $1.50 gallon. Multiply 1.0929 (gallons of propane per therm) x $1.50 (cost of gallon of
propane)= $1.6393 per therm.
Constants:
1 cubic foot of natural gas = 1,000 BTU's 1 gallon of propane = 91,500 BTU's
1 gallon of propane = 0.915 therms 1 therm = 100 standard cubic feet of natural gas
1 therm = 100,000 BTU's
Operating Cost for Natural Gas:
Gas Cost (Cost per Gallon) = HBG Rating BTU's per Hour x Local Cost of Fuel per Therm
BTU's per Therm x HBG Evaporation Rate
Operating Cost for Electricity:
Electricity Cost (Cost per Gal) = Volts x Amps x Cost of Kilowatt Hour
1000 x HBG Evaporation Rate
Example for HBG-15: 180,000 BTU/Hr, 40¢/Therm, 120 Volts, 3 Amps, 6¢/KWH
Gas Cost (¢/Gal) = 180,000 x 40 = 5.5 ¢/Gal
100,000 x 13
Electricity Cost (¢/Gal) = 120 x 3 x 6 = .1¢/Gal
1000 x 13
Total Cost = 6.2¢ (gas) + .1¢ (elec) = 6.3¢/Gal
