<DIV><SPAN class=356451819-20072012><FONT face=Calibri>I am working on setting
up a baseline model for a 500,000 sf hotel, but am unsure of the system choice.

<DIV><SPAN class=356451819-20072012><FONT

<DIV><SPAN class=356451819-20072012><FONT face=Calibri>-- Residential building
types include dormitory, hotel, motel, and multifamily. Residential space types
include guest rooms, living quarters, private living space,

<DIV><SPAN class=356451819-20072012><FONT face=Calibri>sleeping quarters. Other
building and space types are considered nonresidential.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=356451819-20072012><FONT face=Calibri>-- Where attributes make

<DIV><SPAN class=356451819-20072012><FONT face=Calibri>So the questions
are:</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=356451819-20072012><FONT
face=Calibri>1. Does one use 2 different systems in the same
model, say packaged AC for guest rooms and VAV for the rest of the building,
or</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=356451819-20072012><FONT face=Calibri>2. Since the guest rooms
would be the predominant space type, would the entire building need to have
PTAC/PTHP?</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
