Why do some paired heating and cooling technologies appear twice on the *.csv report?
Why do some paired heating and cooling technologies appear twice on the *.csv report?
For heat/cool pairs (separate heating and cooling technologies), information may be listed for both retrofits to new, more efficient equipment and to a heat pump. In some cases, it may be cost effective to replace the heating equipment (or cooling only, or both) with a newer unit of similar type, as well as replace both heat and cool simultaneously with a heat pump system. All cost-effective options will appear on the *.csv report. The best option can be determined by comparing the sum of the individual heat and cool annualized total life-cycle costing savings with that of the combined heat/cool system (i.e., heat pump).
