<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;
font-family:Arial'>I’m trying to simulate a teaching kitchen in
eQUEST. LEED Credit Interpretations Rulings have said that we can take
credit for exhaust energy savings. We have modeled our hoods as variable
volume exhausts and put them on a typical use schedule. ASHRAE 90.1
Section 6.3.7.1 only gives specifics for kitchen hoods over 5000 cfm (which we
don’t have). Am I to assume that we can model the hoods as constant
volume in our baseline model? The energy savings between the two seem
somewhat unrealistic. Has anyone come across this situation and do you
have advice?<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
