[Equest-users] Baseline Exhaust Air Energy Recovery Requirement

This brings up another interesting question.  If heat recovery does not 
operate in one of the modes of the baseline design simulation, is it 
assumed that you _do not_ get the additional fan power credit for that 
particular mode (i.e. baseline has a bypass around the ERV if there is 
no energy recovery occurring).
