Re: [EnergyPlus_Support] Help




Depending on what you are doing, you might just as well ignore it-- for example if you want the surface to be fully adiabatic then you could remove it, and would get this warning. 
I have some models that are just roofs with zone area, ceiling height and internal loads per square foot-- and it seems to work as expected, but also produces this warning-
