List Options | Option Definition | Unit of Measure | |
---|---|---|---|
List Options Absorption chiller | Option Definition | Unit of Measure None | |
List Options Boiler | Option Definition Use "Cooling Heating Medium" to further categorize the boiler as hot water or steam, if desired. | Unit of Measure None | |
List Options Built in heater | Option Definition Built-in heater is a category intended to represent wall or floor mounted units that generate and deliver heat to a local zone such as wall-mounted electric heating panels. | Unit of Measure None | |
List Options Chiller | Option Definition Generic chiller | Unit of Measure None | |
List Options District chilled water | Option Definition | Unit of Measure None | |
List Options District heating | Option Definition A centrally located plant that is used for heating. Use "Cooling Heating Medium" to further categorize as hot water or steam, if desired. | Unit of Measure None | |
List Options District steam to hot water HX | Option Definition A centrally located plant that is used to generate steam that is then moved through a heat exchanger to create hot water for heating. | Unit of Measure None | |
List Options Evaporative cooler | Option Definition A cooler that cools indoor air by moisture evaporation, thereby lowering its dry-bulb temperature and raising its wet-bulb temperature, all at a constant energy (adiabatic) level | Unit of Measure None | |
List Options Fireplace | Option Definition | Unit of Measure None | |
List Options Furnace | Option Definition Packaged assembly of components that includes a heating source, a fan and an air filter, that relies on convection for heating delivery. Use "Cooling Heating Medium" to specify air if desired. | Unit of Measure None | |
List Options Furnace warm air | Option Definition Packaged assembly of components that includes a heating source, a fan and an air filter, that relies on convection for heating delivery | Unit of Measure None | |
List Options Heat pump | Option Definition Generic heat pump | Unit of Measure None | |
List Options Heating stove | Option Definition | Unit of Measure None | |
List Options Individual space heater | Option Definition Individual space heater is a category intended to represent a free-standing or self-contained unit that generates and delivers heat within a local zone. These heaters are characterized by a lack of pipes or ductwork for distributing hot water, steam, or warm air through a building. These heaters are portable and would include electric radiant or quartz heaters, heating panels, gas- or kerosene-fired or electric unit heaters, and infrared radiant heaters. | Unit of Measure None | |
List Options No cooling | Option Definition | Unit of Measure None | |

List Options Not applicable | Option Definition | Unit of Measure None | |
List Options Other | Option Definition | Unit of Measure None | |
List Options Packaged terminal air conditioner | Option Definition A packaged terminal air conditioner, or PTAC, is a self-contained air conditioning system commonly found in hotels, motels, senior housing facilities, hospitals, condominiums, apartment buildings, add-on rooms and sunrooms. | Unit of Measure None | |
List Options Packaged terminal heat pump | Option Definition A Packaged terminal heat pump, or PTHP, is a factory-packaged refrigerant-based heat pump with no air distribution system other than a built-in fan. | Unit of Measure None | |
List Options Packaged unitary direct expansion RTU | Option Definition A unit that includes all the components- evaporative coil, compressor, expansion valve, condenser coil, and fans that's installed outside and the supply air is ducted inside. A separate heating source- electric or gas pack- is added if needed | Unit of Measure None | |
List Options Packaged unitary heat pump | Option Definition Factory-packaged refrigerant-based heat pump with an air distribution system and a reversing valve to alter the flow of refrigerant based on the need. | Unit of Measure None | |
List Options Single package vertical air conditioner | Option Definition Compact through-the-wall packaged system capable of providing total heating and cooling functions for a single zone or multiple rooms, designed with sufficient air-handling capacity for ducted installations. | Unit of Measure None | |
List Options Single packaged vertical heat pump | Option Definition Compact through-the-wall packaged system capable of providing total heating and cooling functions for a single zone or multiple rooms, designed with sufficient air-handling capacity for ducted installations. | Unit of Measure None | |
List Options Solar thermal | Option Definition Air or water heated using solar collectors | Unit of Measure None | |
List Options Split DX air conditioner | Option Definition Split direct expansion | Unit of Measure None | |
List Options Unknown | Option Definition | Unit of Measure None | |
List Options Vapor compression chiller | Option Definition | Unit of Measure None | |
List Options Variable refrigerant flow | Option Definition System using refrigerant as the cooling and heating medium, conditioned by a single outdoor condensing unit, and circulated within the building to multiple fan-coil units. The system supports variable motor speed and thus variable refrigerant flow rather than simply on/off operation. | Unit of Measure None |
