How to turn off the heating component (heating load) for VRF systems in openstudio.

My building only need cooling (summer months) and it requires no heating (heating load should be zero). I have tried to give schedule 'always off' for heating, but it is still resulting in some heating load. how to turn off the complete heating component. If i hardsize the rated heating capacity to zero, OpenStudio is throwing an error.
