How set infiltration rate (ACH) in AFN model?

Hi all!

I would like to run AirflowNetwork (AFN) model for ventilation in summer conditions, however, during the winter HVAC system is activated. Heating loads are quite sensible to infiltration rate, thus, I would like to simulate controlling the air change per hour (ACH), but is not possible in a model which has AFN working.

Somedody knows how to set both AFN and ZoneInfiltration objects without problems? at least any mode to configurate ACH while AFN is included in the model.

Thank you so much!
