Dear all, we have a project in Japan that uses natural gas fired heat pump to provide heating and cooling. If we would like to go with the perscriptive method, how should we compare the efficiency against the Core Performance Guide? The core performance guide only have comparable numbers for electrically operated heat pumps. Are there ways to deal with this issue? Thank you very much. Crystal

I think if you are using a system that is not addressed they you do not have to demonstrate compliance with that requirement.
