This table reflects a more realistic operational scenario — the system runs only as much as needed (70%) during an average hour and could be much lower than this depending if the system has just been turned on, the indoor temperature is already at set temperature, there is a large differential between desired indoor temperature and outdoor temperature or there is minimal zones turned on
