What is the gas consumption per hour of a 1 ton natural gas boiler?
Gas consumption per hour of natural gas boiler = boiler thermal efficiency / natural gas calorific value / boiler efficiency.
Through the formula we can see that the gas consumption of natural gas boilers mainly depends on boiler capacity, natural gas calorific value and boiler efficiency. However, we cannot change the boiler capacity and natural gas calorific value, only the boiler efficiency is variable.
Taking a 1 ton gas boiler with full-load operation as an example. If the calorific value of natural gas is calculated according to 8,000 kcal per cubic meter, according to the difference of boiler efficiency, it is calculated that 1 ton natural gas boiler consumes about 75 cubic meters of natural gas per hour.
The higher the efficiency of boiler use, the less gas consumption, which has inverse relationship between the two. Boiler efficiency has become a key point in assessing boiler quality.

At Guizhou Haocaitou Food Co., Ltd. in Tongren, Guizhou Province, a ZOZEN WNS series gas-fired steam boiler has been operating for five years as part of the company’s steam supply system. The WNS10-1.25-Q boiler, with a rated capacity of 10 t/h, serves as an important heat source for food production. In recent feedback, the customer noted that matching the equipment configuration to production requirements, along with ease of daily operation and maintenance, were key considerations when se...27 Oct 2026 -
From beverage and convenience food production to rice processing, boiler solutions should be selected according to fuel availability, steam demand and site conditions. Steam is commonly used for heating, sterilization and equipment cleaning in food processing. However, different products, production line configurations and fuel conditions create different boiler requirements. In addition to rated steam capacity, food manufacturers need to consider steam pressure, fuel supply, equipment layout a...20 Oct 2026 -
