Hi All,
I do need help in the energy modelling for a warehouse project. Thanks in advance!
This project consists of 200,000sf of warehouse with 5,000sf office space. The warehouse is heating only; the office uses heat pump for both heating and cooling.
Now the questions came:
1. Do I need to model a cooling system in the proposed model?
2. Which baseline system shall I use? From Appendix G, system 7 should be selected. But I doubt if it is applicable for heating only space.
3. Shall I apply two baseline HVAC systems? or just use one dominant system?
Many thanks!

1. Model a system 9 or 10 from 90.1-2010 by using the addendum that created it.
2. You subtract the area of the warehouse from the total and use the remainder in Table 3.1A. Looks like a system 3.
3. Yes two baseline systems.
