[Equest-users] Ventilation and Recirculated air

[Bruce Easterbrook]

I normally only input the ASHRAE outside air values, autosize everything 
else.  This way you can check the design values.  Keep everything in 
your model simple, save lots of way points.  You will be crashing your 
model many times as you learn how it works.  This will require going 
back to your last functioning file and trying again,  make sure you have 
that file or you will go right back to the beginning.  Don't promise the 
design team results on Monday, if you are lucky it will be next Friday.  
Good luck!
