Most Accurate way of totaling HVACTemplate:Ideal loads; Meter or Output Variable?

Hi All, I am trying to figure out the most accurate way of totaling the zone energy demand. I am asking because if I total the output variable for each zone using the "Zone Ideal Loads Zone Total Heating Energy Zone Ideal loads" I get a different heating energy use then if I looked at the "District Heating HVAC" meter.

Thanks,

Ross
