Hi, I am trying to clone a ZoneHVACUnitHeater from a seed .osm file. I was able to successfully clone the heater (heater_in_zone), but was not able to add the unit heater to a thermal zone (thermalZone). My lines of code are:

Load Heater components unless "no heater" is selected

 if heater_name.eql?("No Heater")
 else
    heat = true
    heater_path = OpenStudio::Path.new("#{File.dirname(__FILE__)}/resources/#{heater_name}.osm")
    heater_inputmodel=translator.loadModel(heater_path)
    heater_inputmodel=heater_inputmodel.get
    heater_in_zone=heater_inputmodel.getZoneHVACUnitHeaters[0]

  end

heater_clone = heater_in_zone.clone(model).to_ZoneHVACUnitHeater.get heater_clone.addToThermalZone(thermalZones)

When run, the following error occurs: "Expected argument 1 of type openstudio::model::ThermalZone &, but got Array [#<openstudio::model::thermalzon....in swig="" method="" 'addtothermalzone.'"<="" p="">

I'm pretty new to Ruby so am not sure the correct protocol for cloning objects. If anyone could help me that would be great!
