[Equest-users] VRF assistance

[John Aulbach]

Hello all. I finally got thru my 1st DOE-2.3 VRF run..and it runs !! But I am getting consistently low numbers in cooling. The heating for the most part is taken care of. I was told That each ZONE needeD its own SYSTEM, which I did. That cleaned up a majority of the heating. But cooling in the apartments (this is a multifamily building) is consistently low. The public areas not so much.
And I am unsure when to capture Energy Recovery from the apartment exhausts.
There is no formal design for this building except for the SYSTEM type, so I am basically winging it.
Can anyone offer some sound advice as to what I should generally do to increase cooling? Put a multiplier on the cooling? Add more condensers?
Thanks in advance.
