Hi!
I am working with a project in the UK and need to convert BTU/(hr ft2 F) used for the U-values in the ASHRAE Standard to W/(m K). Is there any tool to do this conversion or any method you could recommend me to do this? I keep getting very weird result with the converters I find in the internet.
Thank you for your help!!

Multiply-By-To Obtain
Btu·ft/h·ft2·°F-1.731-W/(m·K)
