<div>Hey Bill:</div><div><br></div><div>Biggest hangup for me in DOE-2.3 before was the inability to model VRF AND domestic hot water in the same run. Has that been resolved? Many of my buildings now have VRF and it has been a pain to model with air source heat pumps.</div><div><br></div><div>John</div><div><br></div>
