If you are modeling to 90.1-2007 Appendix G, then you need to breakout the fan
energy, so you cannot set it to 0 as suggested. See G3.1.2.1.<br>

<p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#1F497D'>Kelsey’s right – in detailed
mode such efficiency measures entered in wizard mode get split into fan energy
(kW/CFM) and heating (EIR/HIR) & cooling (EIR) efficiencies. If
entering values for heating/cooling efficiency – pay mind to whether fan energy
is included in your EER figures (it usually is), and follow Kelsey’s advice to
zero out the fan energy if so. </span><o:p></o:p></p>
