<p class=MsoPlainText>When you link elements in eQUEST, then the
"linked" element takes on all<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>of the properties of the element it is linked to except
those which are<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>explicitly set. I use this for identical boilers and
chillers -- when I<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>change efficiency or capacity in the linked boiler, it is
set for all of<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>the boilers. Linked fields are dark purple (violet).
You can override<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>any field in which case it becomes red (typical eQUEST).<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>Hope this helps.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoPlainText>> When you right-click a zone in detailed edit mode
under 'Air-Side<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>HVAC,'<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>> you get the option to define a "thermal

<p class=MsoPlainText>><o:p> </o:p></p>

<p class=MsoPlainText>> Does it create an "air wall" (or some
