listers,</SPAN></FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT color=#0000ff size=2 face=Arial><SPAN class=281164216-04022010>I was
doing a simulation using VE Ware plug-in for sketchup carbon footprint
tool, and I am not a technically savvy user, just a dumb architectural
designer...so I had a question.</SPAN></FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT color=#0000ff size=2 face=Arial><SPAN class=281164216-04022010>All
variables were the same between two scenarios, except for the HVAC type.
Under one scenario I was simulating a split mechanical system with mechanical
cooling, and under the other I was simulating a waterloop heat pump (which I
assume is the same as geothermal heat pump?), and the fuel source was
electric.</SPAN></FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT color=#0000ff size=2 face=Arial><SPAN class=281164216-04022010>The
carbon footprint for the waterloop heat pump was greater than the split system
with mechanical cooling. I would've thought it would be the
reverse.</SPAN></FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT color=#0000ff size=2 face=Arial><SPAN class=281164216-04022010>Can
someone explain this to me? Any other comments on the carbon footprint
tool for VE ware sketchup plugin?</SPAN></FONT></DIV>

so much for your time.</SPAN></FONT></DIV>
