I am currently modeling a zoo building that is heated and ventilated
only. According to ASHRAE 90.1 Appendix G, I have to model both
heating and air conditioning even if no air conditioning exists. For
this size building I have to model a System 3 - rooftop air conditioner
with gas heat for both the base building and the proposed building. Is
there anything in Appendix G that would prevent me from setting the
cooling thermostat setpoint up to 90 degrees to prevent cooling energy
from being included in the simulation as long as I use the same setting
for both proposed and base models? <br>
