Thanks, Bill. I bet you are right, John, that it did come out of the ACM manual as did much of DOE2 as I understand it. Do they update that manual I wonder?<br><br>Carol<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Wed, Mar 24, 2010 at 11:39 AM, Bishop, Bill <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:wbishop@pathfinder-ea.com">wbishop@pathfinder-ea.com</a>></span> wrote:<br>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 12pt;"><font face="Times New Roman" size="3"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">I also found some
formulas when tooling around in the archives the other day and could love to
get comments, if any about their utlity:<br>
<br>
EIR=(1/EER-0.012167)/((1/3.413)+0.012167)<br>
and<br>
EIR=((1/SEER*0.778+1.4)-0.012167)/((1/3.413)+0.012167)<br>
<br>
Anyone remember these that knows the source and utility? Is there one for HSPF?<br>

<p class="MsoNormal"><font face="Times New Roman" size="3"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">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?</span></font></p>
