Interpreting low pumps consumption/demand and heat rejection

Hi all,

In my building model, I have a boiler hot water loop and an absorption chiller cold water loop. Cooling is switched off during winter months (JAN-MAR and OCT-DEC) and heating is switched off during summer months (APR-SEP).

How would you interpret low pumps consumption and demand during heating for the months of Jan till Mar and Oct till Dec as per the openstudio results below ?
