Is there a preferred structure for modeling two-pipe dual-temp systems with a summer winter change over?
For example: Valves, pumps: Should the point be modeled: dual, temp, water, valve, cmd OR chilled, hot, water, water, valve, cmd
The same question would apply for a binary summer/winter change over command.
Thanks, Rob

Robert,
I would consider using a dualTemp tag such as
dualTemp, water, valve, cmd
on the secondaryLoop if that makes sense for your application.

Robert,
I use heating and cooling instead of summer winter.

Dennis, Thanks for your prompt reply! - I'm just now running into this again and realized I never responded.

Robert,
How has this been working out for you? I'm working on tagging a similar building where almost all equip is dualTemp but some of the larger AHUs can be heat or cool (steamHeat & chilledWater).
