Fahrenheit (°F)

Fahrenheit is a temperature scale commonly used in the United States for everyday applications like weather forecasts, cooking, and HVAC systems. In this scale, water freezes at 32°F and boils at 212°F, creating a finer degree resolution within the range of human comfort.

Because conversions with Celsius and Kelvin require both scaling and shifting values, a temperature converter is useful for quick and correct results — especially when reading international recipes or weather reports.

Celsius (°C)

Celsius is one of the most widely used temperature scales around the world. It’s part of the metric system and is based on the properties of water: 0°C is the freezing point and 100°C is the boiling point. This makes Celsius convenient for everyday weather reporting, science classes, cooking temperatures, and climate data.

Because it aligns with the metric system, Celsius works smoothly with other scientific units and is the default scale in most countries. Converting Celsius to Fahrenheit or Kelvin is easy with a temperature converter, ensuring quick and accurate results.
