Hi everyone,

I am trying to model a zone ASHP DHW for zones that are also served by PTHP units in a multifamily building in Design Builder. The ASHPs from the zone group are connected to the supply side of the DHW loop. However, I am running into severe errors "Invalid component error" e.g. "Invalid Component Name input=LEVEL7X10:LEVEL7X10S1W WATER HEATER HEAT PUMP * ~~~ * Component type=WATERHEATER:HEATPUMP:PUMPEDCONDENSER". Has anyone ever faced this challenge? What could be the cause of these errors?
