<p class=MsoNormal>I seem to be having some issues with my baseline design and
my first parametric run. (I am working in detail mode with INP file) When I
make my baseline wall value R-13 and change it in my run to R-27 my heating
(MBTU) load goes down by 4% however my electric rate (kWh) goes up 1%. I don’t
really understand because I thought both would have gone down. Am I doing
something wrong?<o:p></o:p></p>
