[Equest-users] Humidity control question

[Sami, Vikram]

So I have an HVAC system setup with a preheat coil, a cooling coil and a heating coil. The humidistat is set to 50%, and it's a 100% OA system.

I assumed you set the LAT for the cooling coil with the cold deck min leaving temp and then the LAT for the heating coil with the Zone entering min supply temp.

I'm getting curious results though - I get no heating loads in the summer months - which I should get for humidity control. I setup some hourly reports to track the temperature of the air leaving the heating & cooling coils and the dehumidification reheat heat as well as the moisture added or removed from the air for dehumidification. I notice that while the cooling coil & heating coil temps seem to be ok and there is moisture removal reported, there seems to be no energy reported for reheat for humidity control.

What am I missing?
