WSHP - Boiler not getting on

Last post

Hello All,

I am working on my first e-Quest model after working 3 years on Trace 700.

I am modeling Water source heat pump with cooling tower. The boilers are not turning on and I do not see any gas consumption.

Can anyone please advice on how to make it work?

Thanks in advance.

If you attach your inp file, this list-serve could offer you lots of
help. However, based on your current description, I can't tell what
the issue is

Here are Fareed's files. If anyone has a chance to look at them.
Here is his issue: ..there is no boiler capacities. I am not sure if boiler
is running at all. I want the boiler to supply HW to WSHPs when the OA temp
hits 45F.

Thanks,
Fareed

I have had the same issue on one of my model. However when I ran the hourly reports to look at the temperature of the loop it was always above 75? therefore the boilers was never needed.

All:

Just looking at the pictorial diagram, the boiler isn't even connected to the
water source heat pump loop. So how can it come on ??
