This answer suggests modifying the Timesteps in Averaging Window input in the SIzing:Parameters input to smooth out the spike in the load associated with recovering from a night setback/system off period.

I think if you maintain the averaging window to one hour you are within the intent of the generally accepted engineering standards referenced in G2.2.3.
