Output is twice of Input [W] for LowTemperatureRadiant:VariableFlow -
Hi,
I set the radiant floor heating design capacity at specific value, say 1,000 W, but when I check the "Zone Radiant HVAC Heating Rate" the output is 2,000 W. I tried other values, 500, 300 and the output is always twice of the input.
