[Equest-users] Adjusting Temperature Set Points

[Alex Krickx]

Hi all,

I have a question on adjusting temperature set points in a parametric run:

Do I select: Thermal Zone (select zones)/Basic Specifications/'Cool Design T' and 'Heat Design T'?

The building owner is interested in a window retrofit and wants to be know how much additional energy can be saved if the temperature set points are relaxed 2 degrees in each direction. I created a run as described above, but the savings were small (~1%) which I was surprised by. Any suggestions?

Thanks,
Alex Krickx
