Update

I just ran a model successfully with the following GSHP loop configuration serving WSHPs in the zones. A similar configuration could be used to serve radiant systems in the zones using the link above.above. The only change I made was to the plant loop type (condenser), the rest of the inputs are defaults and may need to be changed depending on your specific use. You also may want to consider a bypass on either the supply or demand side by adding an adiabatic pipe to the respective drop zone.
