How it is calculated

inH₂O = Pa × 0.00401463076

Multiply the value in pascals by 0.00401463076 to get inches of water.

Example

To convert 25 Pa to inches of water: 25 × 0.00401463076 = 0.100366 inH₂O.

About the units

Pascal
The SI unit of pressure, equal to a force of one newton acting on one square meter.
Inch of water
The pressure of a one inch water column at the conventional density 1000 kg/m³ and standard gravity: 249.08891 Pa. Used for HVAC ducts and air flow.

Limits and caveats

  • Results are rounded for display and computed with the browser's floating point precision (about 15 significant digits).
  • Both unit factors are exact by their official definitions.

Questions about this tool

How many inches of water are in one pascal?

1 Pa = 0.00401463 inH₂O exactly.

How do I convert pascals to inches of water?

Use inH₂O = Pa × 0.00401463076. For example, 25 Pa = 0.100366 inH₂O.

How many pascals are in one inch of water?

1 inH₂O = 249.089 Pa.

What is the difference between gauge and absolute pressure?

Gauge pressure is measured from the surrounding air pressure, while absolute pressure starts from a perfect vacuum. These converters change the unit only, so a gauge reading stays a gauge reading.

Are torr and mmHg the same?

Almost. One torr is 101325/760 Pa, about 133.322368 Pa, and one conventional mmHg is 133.322387 Pa, a difference of less than one part per million. For everyday use you can treat them as equal.
