Can you help me identify the best objects to use in this case? The air is extracted from bathrooms and kitchen and fressh air is suplied in the living room and bedrooms. There are some many options in Energy Plus and feel a bit confused at the moment because I am a civil engineer and not a specialist in building services and systems. |

Yes indeed. I find it quite difficult. The system is implemented in a passive house. The mechanical ventilation systems extracts the air form bathrooms and kitchen and supply fresh air in bedrooms and living room. The air to water heat pump is used for heating and DHW (for DHW there is also a solar panel). The system has two water storage systems (heating buffer and a boiler for DHW). The heating system is served by fan convecters installed in the ceiling. |

Currently I am trying with the AirTerminalSingleDuct:Reheat but I don't know if this is the best way since I am at the very begining in using Energy Plus. |
