Thank you for your replies. There is a similar use of MBtu and Therm units in the Revit Conceptual Energy Analysis application, which is running the DOE2 simulation engine. The ambiguity in reporting units makes for some confusion.<br>

In some reports it will use therms, but for the most part it's MBTU's. 364 therms = 36.4 MBTU's, which lines up with your other reports.<span class="HOEnZb"><font color="#888888"><div>

Gas consumption in the Monthly Total Energy Consumption report seems to be given in Btux100,000, the same as reporting in Therms. Thus, an annual consumption of 36.36 in the chart really means 360,000 Btu, or 36.36 Therms. In the same project run, the Annual Bldg Summary 2-page report is giving annual gas use as 364 Therms. Do I have my units mixed up or is there an order of magnitude reporting glitch?<span><font color="#888888"><br>
