[EnergyPlus_Support] Re: tallying number of uncomfortable hours due to being too hot?

["jeannieboef" <jeannieboef@xxxxxxxxx>]

Look into "Time Setpoint Not Met".

Field: Tolerance for Time Heating Setpoint Not Met
This field allows the entry of a value for the tolerance away from the heating setpoint reporting. If the zone temperature is below the heating setpoint by more than this value, the following report variables will increment as appropriate
Time Heating Setpoint Not Met Time Heating Setpoint Not Met While Occupied This also impacts table report "Annual Building Utility Performance Summary" subtable
"Comfort and Setpoint Not Met Summary".
Field: Tolerance for Time Cooling Setpoint Not Met
This field allows the entry of a value for the tolerance away from the cooling setpoint reporting. If the zone temperature is above the cooling setpoint by more than this value, the following report variables will increment as appropriate
Time Cooling Setpoint Not Met Time Cooling Setpoint Not Met While Occupied This also impacts table report "Annual Building Utility Performance Summary" subtable
"Comfort and Setpoint Not Met Summary".
