Heating load not met hours in an IT Room

I am working on a model with an IT room that is an interior zone with 50
W/SQFT of equipment power use 24/7 and I have heating load not met hours
in this zone. The IT room is served by its own system, I have tried
using both PTAC and package single zone systems without any improvement
in the load not met hours. This zone should not require any heating,
does anyone know what might be the problem?

Richard,

Strange. Check your schedules. You might also be overcooling ...

Ultimately, lower your heating setpoint to a very low value.

Demba,

I have already set the heating setpoint to 50 F (nd the cooling setpoint
is 75 F).
