>From discussion with the site contacts and some of the data we pulled from
the management's EMS system, we know that the building's balance point is 47
degF outdoor air temperature. Above that temperature, no heat is required
in the building.
Is there a place to enter this into eQuest so that it will be able to know
when the heating hours required based on the temperature data?
Thanks,
Sol
Does that factor in supplying minimum ventilation air at 47 degrees?

I am under the impression that it does, but I will confirm with the building
engineer.
IS there a way to enter it into eQuest in either case?
Thanks,

Sol,
What you can do is set the hot water loop operation to SNAP and have it set
to an outdoor air temperature of 47F. That will disable your hot water loop
for hydronic heating when the outdoor temperature is above 47F. (This is in
the detailed interface, not the wizard).
Regards,
Brian
