Santiago,
Look at the Coil:Heating:DX and Coil:Cooling:DX objects.
Cooling has Crankcase heaters and Heating has defrost controls, including defrost heaters. Each of these may be activated and adding energy.
I did not look at the default values, but they may default to non-zero values.

Subject: [EnergyPlus_Support] Re: Heating is present without any heating demand
I am looking at the Annual Building Utility Performance Summary, in the END USES Table, there is an amount of electricity used for heating. It has nothing to do with hot water demand because for that there is a natural gas boiler.
Where can I modify the setting of the crankcase heater?
