| 2017-01-19 09:39:44 -0500 | commented question | glazing not showing up in results I am using (or trying to use) openstudio. I can see the glazing in the model, i have checked the subsurfaces and they are showing glazing. In openstudio the glazing is specified. the results show the different envelope materials, which is from the same tab so i assume the glazing should be reported. anything else I should be doing? |

There were graphs circulated that said the material would last 100 years. However the pipe hadn't been in production for more than 30 years, so how could the company provide a 100 year guarantee? we will find out in about 60 years. the first radiant floor slabs had steel and copper pipes, but as you can gather from todays market PEX has the market. |
