I am getting a warning that says: "Both surfaces 'Surface 1', and 'Surface 2 reference the same construction 'Wall Interior 1' but it is not symmetric, creating a reversed copy." What does this mean?

I saw a similar error asked by someone else but there was no explanation as to why this error comes up.

This error came up when I translated my openStudio model to EnergyPlus. What does this error mean? Is there anything I can do to fix it?

Thanks.
