Infiltration rate in ACH

Hello All,

I've been advised to input a 5m3/hm2 air infiltration rate. Considering that the pressure in IES is set @50 P, what's the best way to convert this to ach? CIBSE TM23 recommends to multiply times the surface-volume ratio, but result seems to high.

Could anybody give me an advise on this ...

Is is it possible to put the SCOP of the heat pump or only the seasonal efficiency? The manufacture shows 157% of seasonal efficiency and I'm a bit concerned because it ...

1. Copying the geometry from ModelIT to a new project. Is there any way to do this?
2. Removing the thermal ...
