<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">Hi,</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">The system I am trying to model in eQUEST is a series of heat pumps that are connected to a ground loop heat exchanger. I set up the heat exchanger and water loop in the water side tab. I selected the 'water loop heat pump' option on the air side systems and assigned the ground loop to it. There is a place on the cooling side to assign the loop to the condenser. However, I don't see anyplace on the heating tab to assign the loop to the heating side of the heat pump. I am also getting 46% of my heating hours outside the throttling range (guessing this is because there is no loop attached to the HP). Is there a fix for this? Should I be using a different system type?</FONT></P>
