Do you normally include an air curtain in the energy model?

Hi everyone, I have a daubt whether to include an air curtain in the energy model for LEED certification since it is presented in design documents. The air curtain is designed to work only occasionally (when loading docks are open), while main heating system has eneough capacity to maintain air temperature over heating setpoint.
Do you normally include an air curtain in the energy model? Thanks you, Dmitry
