there IS NO solar thermal (DHW or otherwise) currently in eQUEST. My
understanding of the best and quickest way to develop this energy savings is to
use the RET Screen software, developed in Canada, I believe. The software is
free.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

calculation in one of the RETScreen programs for you solar DHW savings. It
appears quite comprehensive and is easy to use.</FONT></SPAN></DIV><BR>

adding solar thermal too my model. The solar thermal is for the DWH load
