[Equest-users] EER

[Kelsey VanTassel]

You assign the cooling EIR (inverse of COP) under system>cooling>unitary power. Technically, you should define the efficiency of the compressor separately from the fan power, otherwise eQUEST will double-count the fan energy. If you use an overall system EER, then you should set the fan power (kW/cfm) to zero.

Furnace efficiency (heat input ratio) is specified under system>heating>unitary power.

Where in eQuest can you assign an EER of a DX coil or the Efficiency of a furnace?
