No Plenum zones

5 posts / 0 new
Last post

Hello,

I?m working on creating my zones in a model and when I move to detailed
mode, I don?t see any plenum zones. I have my HVAC system as split system
heat pump with one system per zone. How do I get the wizard to create
plenum zones?

Thanks,

Michael:

On the Screen 2 Building Footprint, there is a "Floor Heights" area, broken up into "Flr to Flr" and "Flr to clg". The difference in your inputs will define the Plenum.

Is there a minimum difference required to have plenums defined? I have 1
foot difference but no plenums appear.

I think anything more than a foot should register. Try 1.1
