Hi All,<br>
&nbsp;<br>
My understanding is that the basement should not be counted toward the total
number of floors&nbsp;when selecting the baseline HVAC system type (Table
G3.1.1A). My building has three stories plus basement and total conditioned
floor area of 20,600 sf ( sf does not include attic which is about 5,000sf). I
would select PSZ-AC for hybrid or PSZ-HP for electric heat. Am I correct?<br>
&nbsp;<br>
&nbsp;<br>
Any&nbsp;comments are appreciated.<br>
&nbsp;<br>
Thank you.<br>
