I am working on a dormitory project with shared bathroom facilities on the residential floors for the residents. Are the lavatories in these rooms classified/defined as 'residential' with a 2.2gpm baseline or 'commercial' with a .5gpm baseline? Obviously with a 2.2gpm baseline there is more potential for water savings if the specified fixture has a flow rate of .5gpm!
