[Equest-users] Savings By Design/Title 24 Compliance

[Kevin Madison]

Cassie -
We are aware of the problem you are having with the FCUs, and there 
isn't a fix for it at this time. For now, we have been advising people 
to use the SZRH system with one zone per system. This problem is fixed 
in the version we just submitted to the CEC for 2008 Title 24. We are 
expecting approval in the next couple of months. Sorry for the hassle.
