openstutio ''surface match'' measure generates slash

I'm working on a multilayer-floor building with thousands of spaces. Here is a screenshot of my model.

image description

Surface matching in SketchUp plugin is not smart enough, manually adjustment can be super huge.

Then I tried surface matching in OpenStutio i.e. apply the ''surface match'' measure, it did work great, but it generate many slashes from surface to surface which is not adjacement. Just like this picture.

image description

Now I'm worry about these slashes damaging the heat transfer process. I only want heat transfer happens in 2 surface which is adjacement. Does my concern make sense? If so, how can I solve the problem?

I tried to delete the slash, but delete some of them will cause surface to be deleted together.

Thanks for your help.
