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><br>Carol<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Wed, Mar 24, 2010 at 7:50 AM, Bassam Yammine <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:byammine@flowgroup.ca">byammine@flowgroup.ca</a>></span> wrote:<br>

(which is in Btu/Btu) in the detailed mode, click on the Air-Side HVAC icon at
the top of your screen, then double click on the heat pump. Under the cooling
and heating tabs you will find a Unitary Power tab where you can change your
EIR.</span></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?</p>
