No, it's not a conditioned space. You might want to include any external loads, eg gas infrared heaters, or ? as external loads to the building, but IMHO outside is outside.<br><br>Carol<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">

<div><font color="#000066"><font face="comic sans ms,sans-serif">I have a question regarding external deck areas for restaurants. If I have a restaurant with and external area which is not conditioned in the design but has considerable occupancy relative to the internal area of the restaurant does this need to be treated as a conditioned space regardless. Has there been a CIR relating to this question?</font></font></div>
