Dear Jean,
Unmet load hours, in my experience , are not improved by adjusting setpoint managers. Rather, I have found that these are more likely to cause unmet loads:
· A setpoint manager or schedule is not active (it’s off or incorrectly specified)
· The system or zone sizing factor is too low (or high)
Always, I report many nodes for air loops to see what component is not working properly. I recommend the same for you!
