Hi, In Canada, I personally never heard of anyone using Revit for loads calculation. Someone started a topic here a whi

Check your internal heat gains such as occupancy, lighting, equipment - they all add sensible cooling load too

Hi everyone,

I wonder if any IES user can share what system they are using to model simple electric baseboard heaters?

I tried to add the pre-made "unfanned room heater" provided by IES but the unmet heating load hours are huge (over 2000 hours per year), which makes me think that this may not be the best system to reflect elec bbs in IES, possibly because the system doesn't have a recirculation fan built-in, so I think the heated air is not being properly distributed in the zone which makes the unmet load hours to skyrocket.

Any thoughts on a better system or adjustments I should be aware of?

Thanks, Kaue
