[Equest-users] pool heating baseline system

[Pasha Korber-Gonzalez]

Isn't the pool heating system considered as a process load for 90.1 since it
has no effect on the overall building design?  It would be exactly the same
in the baseline as it is for the proposed case.

...just a thought, although I haven't run into this scenario with any of my
sim projects.
