I would bet there is no good reason for running both at the same time.
I'll ask the HVAC instructor at the college if he knows of one but I 
can't think of any reason they should both
run at the same time since they are working towards opposite ends. The 
A/C unit absorbs heat from the air
so why would adding additional heat to the air while simultaneously 
trying to extract it do anything except ruin
efficiency?
