Just a quick look at your pdfs shows that you have very high lighting and
equipment loads, you also will have high occupancy loads, which means a lot of
heat to your spaces. It could be that this heat is more than sufficient to meet
your needs and that cooling is the mode you are in most of the year. Without
seeing you model inputs, I don't know whether you are using economizers or not
or any sort of heat recovery. If you are that might also be an influence.<br>

<p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto'>I’ve
been trying to investigate energy consumption for a hospital in Mexico City.
The space heating is giving me a zero for a few months then dashes for
the rest. I’ve modeled based on climate zone 3. I’ve tried all
three weather files for Mexico City, Mexico88, 90 and 91. In efforts to
verify the model was correct, I changed weather files for different locations
in the US. I even tried a US climate zone 3 and it showed some space
heating. Is this an issue with the weather file or is there just no real
space heating. The system used was a dx with electric reheat. The
attached pdfs show the numbers.<o:p></o:p></p>
