<p class=MsoNormal>eQuest frustration question:<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>I have a VAV system with HW reheat and DX cooling. The
AHU airflow is auto-sized, the main HW heating coil is auto-sized, the zone VAV
airflow is auto-sized, the zone VAV HW reheat is auto-sized, and the zone HW
baseboard is auto-sized…why with all these auto-sized values will I still
have a warning that my zone has insufficient heating?? Wouldn’t
eQuest auto-size the heating capacity to meet the load required? I have
numerous systems with unmet load hours because of this type of warning and need
some advice on how or where to start in my attempt to get rid of these unmet
load hours for my EAc1 submittal. Thanks.<o:p></o:p></p>
