[Equest-users] LEED Baseline system

If it is conditioned space (heated, cooled, or both), a basement floor is still a floor as far as system selection is concerned.  If it is neither heated nor cooled, it might be acceptable to exclude it, but I admit I have never encountered an entirely unconditioned basement on a LEED project before.

Hi All,
 
My understanding is that the basement should not be counted toward the total number of floors when selecting the baseline HVAC system type (Table G3.1.1A). My building has three stories plus basement and total conditioned floor area of 20,600 sf ( sf does not include attic which is about 5,000sf). I would select PSZ-AC for hybrid or PSZ-HP for electric heat. Am I correct?
 
 
Any comments are appreciated.
 
Thank you.
 
Ana
