About these units
CCF (ccf)
The abbreviation CCF stands for centum cubic feet, meaning 100 cubic feet. It is widely used by water and natural gas utilities to measure residential and industrial consumption. Water bills in many US cities list usage in CCF, balancing numerical convenience with practical scale. For example, a household may consume 5–12 CCF per month, depending on climate and household size. Because natural gas companies also use CCF, the unit plays a central role in energy billing, conservation programs, and environmental reporting. It is a key bridge between technical engineering measurements and everyday consumer usage.
Decistere (decistere)
A decistere equals 0.1 stere, or 0.1 cubic meters, commonly used when selling smaller amounts of firewood or measuring smaller timber volumes. Homeowners purchasing wood for fireplaces or stoves may find the decistere a more appropriate unit than the stere, because it matches typical household needs. Though not an SI unit, the decistere fits comfortably within the metric system, demonstrating how hybrid traditional-metric units survive in niche contexts.
