+# Add EMPD Material Properties
+
+## Description
+Adds the properties for the effective moisture penetration depth (EMPD) Heat Balance Model with inputs for penetration depths.
+
+## Modeler Description
+Adds the properties for the MoisturePenetrationDepthConductionTransferFunction or effective moisture penetration depth (EMPD) Heat Balance Model with inputs for penetration depths. 
+
+ Leaving Change heat balance algorithm? blank will use the current OpenStudio heat balance algorithm setting. 
+
+ At least 1 interior material needs to have moisture penetration depth properties set to use the EMPD heat balance algorithm.
