<font color="#336666"><font face="verdana,sans-serif">My interpretation of this is: </font></font><div><font color="#336666"><font face="verdana,sans-serif">If you model a building with electric baseboard heating in a climate that has no real heating load, and you use a baseline and model with baseboard heating that your thermostat should not turn the heating on so long as your building is thermally well designed- so the simplest route would be to use the system specified for compliance in your model as a method to show heating is not needed. You could set your setpoint to the minimum for thermal comfort for your region. Then document why you did not use heating in the actual building possibly might use the tool called 'climate consultant' to show how your climate supports this design for documentation. </font></font></div>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt" lang="EN-US">I have one
question: when proposed building has no heating system, such as in HongKong,
the weather is hot, it’s not necessary to design heating system in winter.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt" lang="EN-US">While Appendix G
table G3.1 No.10 says: “c. Where no heating system exists or no heating system
has been specified, the heating system classification shall be assumed to be
electric, and the system characteristics shall be identical to the system
modeled in the baseline building design.” <br>
Should it be explained as such: if the building is to design heating system
later, the heating system should be electric, but not in allusion to HongKong’s
instance. Therefore when there’s no necessary to design heating system in proposed
building, the two models (proposed and baseline ) can be modeled without
heating system, am I right?</span></p>
