CI-2009 WEp1: Water Use Reduction—20% Reduction
Hi everyone,
does anyone how to deal with bidets within the project scope. In our project the the bathrooms for women are equipped with bidets and I do not really knwo if I have to include them in the water use calculation and if yes in which fixture group I have to add them.
I desperately need some assistance here, thanks so much!

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?
Are shower duration controls an acceptable water-saving strategy?
Can I include process water savings in order to earn an Exemplary Performance point?

Even though they are water-using, and similar to toilets, bidets are not covered by WEp1. It may be possible to optionally include them in WEc3 for the purposes of Exemplary Performance calculations only.

Hello Tristan, was there any change since then?
