Receive an error message "Age must be less than building age", even when entering an equipment lifetime less than the building age. I do not receive this error for other appliances or space conditioning equipment. See screenshot attached. C:\fakepath\SharedScreenshot.jpg

@muhl What is the age of the home (as listed on the geometry input screen) for your project?

I set the age of the home as 2 years, and then wanted to make the system 1 yr. It's almost a new build that we are evaluating.

I'm not sure I understand the issue. The GSHP cannot be 10 years old if the building is only 2 years old; you need to enter a value of 2 (or less) for the GSHP age.

The image for the GSHP shows the default age. I did not select the 10 year age for the equipment. Instead, I'm trying to select something less than 2 years. In my case, I'm trying to select 1 year.

Are you not able to type in 1 year? Sorry, I'm not understanding what the issue is.
