[EnergyPlus_Support] fireplace and LPG boilers?



Hi all, 

kind of intermediate user in E+, i have been trying lately to deepen my knowledge on E+ by simulating my house. We use a fireplace in the living room along with an LPG-fired boiler which supplies hot water for an underfloor heating system in the living room and hot water for wall-mounted radiators in the sleeping room zones.

I am wondering if you can point me to examples files for underfloor heating systems (though I think this can be modelled with the ZoneHVAC:LowTemperatureRadiant object, right?) and LPG boilers. There should be no problems hooking up the same boiler to different zone equipment, right? 

Finally, I have been searching the documentation and this board for objects related to fireplaces but I have not had any luck yet. Would I have to use a ZoneHVAC:HighTemperatureRadiant for this?

Thanks for the help,

Panagiotis.
