Ditto, for what it's worth!
I had a project with a 2-story entry/atrium space with a glass exterior in a very cold climate... actual design used a heavy amount of baseboards along the perimeter in addition to FPVAV's with reheat.
The baseline system serving that space was a fan-powered box (System 6) that had to autosize pretty big to keep up with the heating loads.

That is exactly my understanding.

So the interpretation would be that we must model the baseboard system with whatever HVAC system is associated with the design while the baseline model only has to include the system type spelled out in the guidelines?

Dear Will,
All baseline systems have some sort of (non-baseboard) heating as part of the system. Baseboard would only be used for a Proposed system.

Hello all,
I was trying to find some guidance on how we are suppose to model baseboard systems on the baseline model for LEED submission. Are they treated like preheat systems where we must simulate them to be the same on both the proposed and baseline or is there some rule I'm not seeing in ASHRAE 90.1-2007?
Thanks!
