RE: Detailed Report, LS-F Building Monthly Load Components

Why would roof heat losses be zero in a model defined with plenum spaces
that have roofs components? In report LS-F, there are no losses reported
in 'Roof' and 'Wall' heat losses seem exceptionally high, as if 'Roof'
losses are reported in 'Walls'.

All spaces were created using the eQuest wizard mode. Inspecting the
"exterior surface properties", the word "Roof" appears below the surface
name. All roof constructions are made with layers input, having a
U-Value 0f 0.043. When creating exterior surfaces in detailed edit mode,
no option exists for defining an exterior surface as a roof or wall.

So, how are the loads associated with roofs reporting in LS-F? What
other reasons might roof loads not report, or at least not report in the
correct load component?
