[Equest-users] Unexplained Electric Space Heat

[David Bastow]

Stephen,
 
You might check to see if you have electric baseboard heaters set up on
your air side HVAC under heating, under the preheat/baseboard tab.  That
is the main thing that I have often seen on reviews get left mistakenly
on.

.INP and .PD2 files needs to be looked at. You have SOMETHING set as
electric heat.

Hi,

 

I am modeling my design building that contains some AHUs, UHs, CUHs, and
MAUs.  All of the heating in the systems comes from 3 hot water boilers
that supply hot water coils in the air-side equipment.  The VAV systems
have VAV boxes with hot water reheat coils and there are no electric
resistance heating coils in the building.  However when I simulate the
model I get an extremely large space heating load under the Electric
Consumption.  Has anyone come across this problem?

 

Thank you for any ideas or help.

 

Stephen Salomon
