color:black'>            Typically equest stores the efficiency of a given piece
of equipment as either the Heat Input Ratio (HIR) or as the Electric Input
Ratio (EIR).  This is under the “Equipment Efficiency” heading on the “Basic
Specifications” tab if you open the equipment properties within the detailed
interface.  The Electric Input Ratio should be the inverse of the COP.  I hope
this helps.  Thanks.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>Hi All,<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>I am still fairly new to equest and I am having a bit of
trouble with setting up my HVAC.  I created a building model using the
equest wizard and now I have made a number of changes within the detailed DOE2
interface.  The building uses air source heat pumps for the HVAC and I
would like to change the EER/COP values without going back to the wizard, but I
cannot figure where these values are stored.  Is there an easy way to make
changes like that within DOE2?<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>Thanks,<o:p></o:p></p>
