NC-2009 WEp1: Water Use Reduction—20% Reduction
We have a hotel where the showers have two showerheads. One showerhead placed overhead and one han-held showerhead. They have different flow-data.
Both showerheads will be used, but we do not know how much each of the showerheads will be used.
Which flow data shall we use? The highest flow or the average flow, or?

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?

I believe you need to use the worst-case scenario (the highest flow rate). Along those lines, if they can be used simultaneously, I believe you'll need to add the two rates together...
