Re: [EnergyPlus_Support] HVACTemplate:System:PackagedVAV



You could correct these inputs and then use 
SetPointManger:SingleZone:Coolling and SetPointManger:SingleZone:Heating 
to control each coil individually (or even scheduled SP managers if you 
like). You may have to manually size the heating coil if autosizing is used.
