Appendix G Question

I'm modeling a 30,000 sf addition to an existing building that's 3
floors above an existing 2 floor building. It has its own chiller and
natural gas boiler. In Table G3.1.1A should I select System3 assuming 3
floors, or should I select system 5 assuming 5 floors?

Is just the addition going for LEED certification? Also, make sure no hvac
systems are connected with the existing building. Then probably system3.

Well - actually the existing building is also going for certification
and is in the final processes. This is really its own separate building
- except for the fact that it sits directly above the other building.
