Apr 8, 2004 1 #3 fredt Mechanical Sep 21, 2003 85 0 0 AU I would confirm Greg Locock's advice that it is inches water gauge IE 10"WG is the pressure that will support a column of water 10 inches high. If you are in ISO land multiply by 0.248 to get kPa (kilopascals). IE 10"WG equals 2.48kPa. Upvote 0 Downvote
