Has anyone else compared a vav w/ reheat system to a wshp system? Our model shows a 60% savings in therms, does this seem excessive? I've checked the inputs and can't see why this might be happening. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks. <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:"Univers LT 47 CondensedLt"'>Allen Spencer<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><b><span style='font-family:"Univers LT 47 CondensedLt"'><o:p> </o:p></span></b></p><p class=MsoNormal><b><span style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Univers LT 47 CondensedLt";color:#717174'>Rabideau </span></b><span style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Univers LT 47 CondensedLt";color:#717174'>Architects<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Univers LT 47 CondensedLt"'>550 Hinesburg Rd <b><span style='color:#96070A'>| </span></b>Suite 101 <b><span style='color:#96070A'>|</span></b> South Burlington, VT</span><b><span style='font-family:"Univers LT 47 CondensedLt";color:#96070A'><o:p></o:p></span></b></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Univers LT 47 CondensedLt"'>802-863-0222 <b><span style='color:#96070A'>| </span></b>allen@rabideau-architects.com<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p></div></body></html>
