Yes, as I stated below. If you really need DOE-2.2 then there is no
metric interface as yet.<br><br>

Is this not a front end for DOE-2.1E, not DOE-2.2 (eQuest front
end)?<br>

</dd><dd>Equest may not be very helpful here. You can always use EE4 - a
simple interface to DOE2.1e that allows full input in metric and converts
to imperial for running the model. I find that EE4 will give just
as accurate an answer a equest for over 90% of the building simulation
problems I face. Get it at:<br><br>

<br><br>
</dd><dd>Note that EE4 generates the Budget Case for the MNECB but not for
ASHRAE 90.1. As with equest, you will have to create your own
Budget case.<br><br>
