<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">Unmet heating hours will probably go away once you get your heating operational. I’d caution against internally justifying/rationalizing one set of unmet hours with another – keep in mind unmet hours are an
indicator/symptom of a problem, not a problem in and of themselves.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">Salutations!<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I just completed a LEED model, but after reviewing the data results, I think something is wrong.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The baseline building is showing no energy used for space heating, heat rejection, and service water heating. I have the 2 boilers modeled, per G3.1.3.2. This sort of makes sense because the model was showing high unmet heating hours,
while the proposed building had had unmet cooling hours (successfully resolved).
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I set up the system 5 equipment (Packaged VAV with reheat) in the wizard, but it doesn’t seem to show a heating component in the DDE. I’m going to keep looking, but wanted to see if someone could point me in the right direction.<o:p></o:p></p>
