Hi,
I've set up my own ground floor in the roofs tab and pressed set up ground floors before confirming but when I go back it resets to what it was previously, and my heat loss through the floor is minimal (only 52W whereas my wall is 3kW. See snip below, my floor type should be 13 which I insert and press the two buttons at the bottom but it goes straight back to type 1.I also need to remove a window but am unsure how.
Thanks,
Hi Rory,
This menu specifies what floor type you wish to change the floor to - it does not show what types are present in your model.
If you wish to see what surface types you have set in the model, or remove windows, you can go to Rooms > Change Surface as below:
Or, you can use Print / Schedule as shown here.

Hi Shane,
When I open the change surface tab it shown my window type but I can't delete it. Would it be possible to arrange a very quick microsoft teams call to discuss?
Rory
Good morning. You need to select the wall in question and then use Edit Sub surfaces to view the window surfaces.
You can then delete as you need:
Workflows such as this are covered in the Hevacomp Mechanical Designers course, which is available for free to all Select users as shown here. If you have not gone through this as of yet I would definitely recommend doing so.
Should you require a meeting on this then you would need to please log a Service Request so that we have all your contact details and can send you an invite.
Regards,
Shane
