Inches of water column (inH2O) is a unit of pressure typically used to measure low-pressure levels. It is commonly used in applications such as HVAC systems, where precise pressure measurements are necessary for proper operation. One inch of water column is equivalent to the pressure exerted by a one-inch column of water at a specific gravity of 1.0.
To convert inches of water column to pounds per square inch (psi), a conversion factor of 0.0361 is used. This means that 1 inch of water column is equal to 0.0361 psi.

How to Convert Inches of Water Column to Psi
To convert inches of water column to psi, you can use the following formula:
Pressure (psi) = Pressure (inH2O) x 0.0361
For example, if you have a pressure reading of 10 inches of water column, the conversion to psi would be:
10 inH2O x 0.0361 = 0.361 psi
Using the Conversion Chart
Below is a conversion chart to help you quickly convert inches of water column to psi:
| Inches of Water Column (inH2O) | Pressure (psi) |
|---|---|
| 1 | 0.0361 |
| 2 | 0.0722 |
| 5 | 0.1805 |
| 10 | 0.361 |
| 15 | 0.5415 |
By using this conversion chart, you can easily determine the equivalent psi value for any given inches of water column measurement. This can be particularly useful in industries where precise pressure measurements are critical for system performance and safety.
