We have a facility that will provide a gym, art classes, weight area, aerobics, etc. It its mostly health activities related facility. The facility will have around 80-100 visitors per day, some of them using the showers, however i noticed that in the water efficiency calculator, visitors are not included in the shower usage, except for FTEs which in our case are only 10 people. How can I adjust the usage so that it accurately demonstrates savings of new showers installed for the facility members?

Based on the project type (health facility) it seems reasonable to include some visitor shower use. In the WEp1 Form calculator I would create an additional fixture group just for the visitor shower use (however you will likely need to list these 80 – 100 visitors in the FTE column in order for the Form to calculate this fixture group). I would provide a narrative explaining your methodology and rationale for including the visitor shower use.
