<p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#1F497D'>Hi Chris!<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#1F497D'><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#1F497D'>Under my tutelage, I would
advise those first getting started to simply ignore the compliance analysis
tool for their first LEED models. It is put simply a work in progress and
in its current state is not always time-efficient. Better to first
understand how to build a baseline by modifying your proposed model, so
that you can understand better exactly what the compliance tool is doing and
not doing.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#1F497D'><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#1F497D'>That said, you’re already
well down the path and I won’t tell you to re-do major amounts of
work. I’ve added some quick responses below with the above in
mind. Also, it’s clear you have fallen into the deep end of the pool!
My responses are deliberately simplified in some cases because you need to do
some legwork to catch up on some issues. Use the archives, read the help
files (right-click any field), and direct specific questions (with full
descriptions and what you know and what you know you don’t know) to
the mailing list as they come up!<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><b>Greetings,<o:p></o:p></b></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>I am working on my first LEED project using eQuest and have
received multiple comments on my submittal for EAp2: Minimum Energy Performance.
Attached are the 11 review comments. I have many questions and will try
to explain my level of eQuest knowledge below so you can get a sense of where I
am at.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>--Here is my understanding of eQuest:<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoListParagraph style='margin-left:40.5pt;text-indent:-.25in;
mso-list:l0 level1 lfo2'><![if !supportLists]><span style='mso-list:Ignore'>1.<span

make my Proposed design model in eQuest.<o:p></o:p></p>

mso-list:l0 level1 lfo2'><![if !supportLists]><span style='mso-list:Ignore'>2.<span
style='font:7.0pt "Times New Roman"'> </span></span><![endif]>I
perform the simulation.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoListParagraph style='margin-left:40.5pt;text-indent:-.25in;
mso-list:l0 level1 lfo2'><![if !supportLists]><span style='mso-list:Ignore'>3.<span
style='font:7.0pt "Times New Roman"'> </span></span><![endif]>I
perform the compliance analysis and it makes a Baseline model.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoListParagraph style='margin-left:40.5pt;text-indent:-.25in;
mso-list:l0 level1 lfo2'><![if !supportLists]><span style='mso-list:Ignore'>4.<span
style='font:7.0pt "Times New Roman"'> </span></span><![endif]>I
export file LEED results which gives me the excel spreadsheet of data that
compares the Proposed model to the Baseline model that was just created.
I used this info to fill out the EA forms online.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoListParagraph style='margin-left:40.5pt'><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>--My questions regarding changes in eQuest that are related
to modifying the Baseline after you have run your Proposed design:<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoListParagraph style='margin-left:40.5pt;text-indent:-.25in;
mso-list:l2 level1 lfo4'><![if !supportLists]><span style='mso-list:Ignore'>1.<span

do you make the changes in the Baseline model? <span style='color:red'>Open
the baseline model and modify it as you would the proposed model. Should
have been created in the same directory when you did the compliance
analysis. Suggest keeping backups before modifications so that you have a
good reference of where you came from.</span><o:p></o:p></p>

mso-list:l2 level1 lfo4'><![if !supportLists]><span style='mso-list:Ignore'>2.<span
style='font:7.0pt "Times New Roman"'> </span></span><![endif]>And
then how do I compare this modified baseline against the Proposed design model,
like using the compliance analysis button? Won’t this just
regenerate another new Baseline? <span style='color:red'>After

new model. Note that everything compiled in that spreadsheet can also be
referenced and reviewed between the detailed and graphical simulation reports
for each model.</span><o:p></o:p></p>

(height/width). They should match the proposed if you used the compliance tool
approach.</span><o:p></o:p></p>

the baseline model and revise the offending construction(s).</span><o:p></o:p></p>

case?<span style='color:#1F497D'> </span><span style='color:red'>Open the
baseline model, navigate to the airside/waterside HVAC tabs, and modify the
existing systems or add equipment as necessary.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

degree-F temp difference? Where do I make these changes for the Baseline
and Proposed cases?<span style='color:#1F497D'> </span><span
style='color:red'>Review the temperatures under the heating and cooling tabs of
the airside systems.</span><o:p></o:p></p>

airflow for the Baseline and Proposed cases? How do I model it with zero
outside airflow when fans are cycled on to meet unoccupied setback
temperatures?<span style='color:#1F497D'> </span><span style='color:red'>Minimum
OA is handled differently depending on the system we’re talking
about… start by clicking airside HVAC, click a zone in the component
tree, and review/read the help files for the inputs regarding OA.</span><o:p></o:p></p>

occupancy in the Baseline case that is created?<span style='color:#1F497D'>
</span><span style='color:red'>You’ll need to be more specific about what
you’re trying to accomplish.</span><o:p></o:p></p>

</span></span><![endif]>How do I add the service water heating system in the
Baseline case?<span style='color:red'> A few approaches exist –
I’d start by reviewing the waterside HVAC tab… you should have
something like your proposed system to modify.</span><o:p></o:p></p>

that is created?<span style='color:#1F497D'> </span><span style='color:red'> LPD
is a property of spaces. Edit under the Internal Load tab.</span><o:p></o:p></p>

for the Proposed case? How adjustable are the parameters (# of minutes
stays on after the last person is detected)?<span style='color:#1F497D'> </span><span
style='color:red'>See appendix G, last table at the end. You take a % off
of the LPD of spaces which have occ sensors that aren’t required to have
them per chapter 9. </span><o:p></o:p></p>

exterior load on the electric meter (EM1 by default) – edited under the
utility & economics tab.</span><o:p></o:p></p>

</span></span></span><![endif]>I am using a solar hot water system for the
domestic hot water. How do I model the input information of the solar
water heating system for the Proposed case?<span style='color:#1F497D'> </span><span
style='color:red'>eQuest won’t calculate solar hot water system behavior
directly – I suspect you’d need to document this calculation
separately, then apply a factor to the system usage in the model
appropriate to the % of “free” hot water through the year.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
