Good Day eQuest-users,

I apologize if anyone can help me in the following use, there is a VAV with reheat system, DX cooling and Hot Water Reheat. The Hot Water reheat is supplied by a boiler. The building is one floor with perimeter and core zones.

The following issue cause excessive unmet load hours in heating, I figure out that changing Heat/Rehat: Hot Water delta F from 30 F to 20 F reduce unmet load hours but cooling capacity is increased tremendously, also the following warning is maintained.

Please, any of you have go ahead with the following warning?

**WARNING**********************************************************************
ZONE EL1 WSW Zone (fG.z1)
might have insufficient heating capability.
Check that the SYSTEM or ZONE HEATING-CAPACITY plus this
ZONEs BASEBOARD-RATING is adequate to maintain the ZONE
specified DESIGN-HEAT-T for the calculated peak ZONE load
(see LS-A or LS-B for the ZONE peak load.)

SYSTEM S1 Sys (PVAVS)
which supplies the above listed ZONE, has a design heating
coil exit temperature, HEAT-SET-T,(plus any zone reheat)
below its MAX-SUPPLY-T or the ZONE DESIGN-HEAT-T, which
might account for the insufficient heating capability.

ZONE EL1 WSW Zone (fG.z1) has a THERMOSTAT-TYPE
of REVERSE-ACTION, which, when added to the issues listed
in the messages above, will cause excessive underheating.

Thank you!
