Does anyone knows if the tenant spaces shall be simulated with HVAC system for a shopping mall or can i just simulate with idealloads? I searched in the LEED Reference guide Appendix 2 but it does not mention anything about HVAC system for tenant spaces, just lightng and plug and process engery. Thanks

If the HVAC for the tennant spaces is known then you can model that. If not known then the system should be the same as the baseline.

Marcus, Thank you. We had the same question for a retail space where the HVAC system is not designed yet. Could you please give us some insight on where you found this info in appendix G? Thanks!
