[Equest-users] HVAC Loads Based on eQuest

[Hernandez, Arturo]

Last thing I would like to bring up on this topic: Is solar heat gain
taken as a credit during your HDD and if so how could this be
"shut-off".

I think there is another question about how detailed your load
calculation will be in breaking down the building compared to the
resolution required for your energy model, but you might be able to
navigate the differences successfully.  And for some projects there may
not be much difference.

 

Also whether the same person is doing both tasks, and their familiarity
with both software packages.  Arturo, if you were doing both then great,
but what if you have to hand the load calc tasks off to someone at your
office that doesn't use eQuest?

You are correct. Therefore one would just have to schedule that to be
off all the time in HDD. So are there any other any concerns with using
eQuest? Is the answer simply: It is easier to get the load calculations
from Trane Trace?
