You need to modify the IDD file that Eppy is using to add additional copies of that repeating field.

C:\eppy046\resources\iddfiles

Thank you!!! That makes sense. Can I use the same IDD file for other
models that don't have that many pieces of water equipment, or is it
important to have a customized IDD file for each model?

While I've got your attention, I'm also having trouble getting eppy to
print a single object from a list. I can print the entire list just fine,
but when I try to just print one element I get errors. Here's a snippet
from the code:

LPD

lights = idf1.idfobjects['LIGHTS']
for light in lights:
light.Design_Level_Calculation_Method= "Watts/Area"
light.Lighting_Level=""
light.Watts_per_Zone_Floor_Area="8.61112"

firstlight = lights[0]

print firstlight

Thanks so much!!!
Amalia

Amalia,
I thought it would print. Will take a look and check. I am traveling now, so my response may be slow.

Amalia,
You can use the modified IDD for on your other models too

I am unable to recreate the front problem,
If it reoccurs open a new issue with the error message it is throwing out.

I am closing this issue

Ok, thanks!
