VRV output

Hi,

Really appreciate if someone can explain this anomaly or lack of my
knowledge.

I'm simulating a VRV system using PVVT system type (heat pump) according to
some suggestions posted on bldg-sim. I notice that whenever the fans are off
the electric input to both heating and cooling show 25 watts for each hour
throughout the year. How can a heat pump consume electricity for both
heating and cooling when fans are off?
Would it be realistic to ignore 25 watts for all the hours fans are off?

Thanks much.
