Water Side Economizers

I'm trying to model a waterside economizer in eQUEST and I'm getting
curious results. The building energy usage goes up. There is no real
change to the space cooling load, but the fan energy doubles and there
is a 25% increase in pump energy (expected). It looks like it's turning
on the equipment for the economizer, but its running the chiller as
well.

What am I missing here?
