<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Franklin Gothic Book","sans-serif"">Happy Monday all,
<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Franklin Gothic Book","sans-serif";color:black">I have a question regarding the LEED DES guidelines. I am modeling a high rise residential tower in the Middle East. The Proposed model has electric
heating, therefore a System type 2 was selected for the Baseline residential zones. The project initially had an onsite chilled water plant, but is now going to be connected to an offsite CEP. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Franklin Gothic Book","sans-serif";color:black"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Franklin Gothic Book","sans-serif";color:black">Page 11 of DES guidelines says that the Baseline System type 2 shall be converted to a 4 pipe FCU with HW boiler heat - which is a fuel switch for
heating! Is that correct? and if it is, do we have to switch fuel in the Proposed Case as well? <o:p></o:p></span></p>
