CI-2009 WEp1: Water Use Reduction—20% Reduction
We are using the Kohler faucet with 1.5 gpm aerator for pantry sink, I asked the supplier for .5gpm aerator, he said lowest Kohler offers on this faucet is 1.5 gpm. Will the 1.5 gpm work for this credit?

Can you explain the 12-second duration for metering faucets?
Can I use a nonpotable water source to contribute to WEp1 compliance?
We are having trouble finding EPAct-compliant fixtures. Is that a problem?
Where can I find a clear meaning of "public" and "private" as relevant to lavatory faucets?

Lee, technically you can use this on the project but since it's over the expected threshold, it will set you back in terms of meeting the credit requirements. I would recommend searching more deeply for a low-flow fixture.
