Calculating CH system requirements using STARS. Interested in advanced level guidance or experience when using stars to calculate the requirements for an entrance hall with an open double height storey staircase and open 1st flr landing.
The current model for this space, as part of the overall property model, is set up as the entrance hall, the double height staircase and the landing as three separate room models.
I assume that as the required BTU's are given for the three spaces i could add these together and select 2 radiators one on landing and one within hallwayrather than the 3 calculated for each space.
The current 40yr old system has three rads in this space, 1 in hallway, 1 at bottom of stairs (i would like to do away with this one) and one on landing.
Look forward to hearing from the STARS stars out there.
Thanks, S.
