Air Loop Heating Load is zero

I'm trying to get confidence with the AirLoopHVAC system (E+ 8.8), before applying it to complex models, so I built a simple 2 zone building, with an air loop served by a boiler and chiller, to supply conditioned air to both zones. You can find the model here.

The heating load (as well as the autosized values for the hot water loop) is always zero. Probably there is some mistake in the setpoint definition. I checked the InputOutput and example files to see what kind of error I'm doing, but I couldn't find it. If anyone could have a look at it, it would be very helpful.
