Even though they are not residents, I wonder because Hotel Passengers would use more times the WC than a transient and also the total amount of passengers would use the showers at least once a day! Does anyone know how would this apply in calculations?

Catalina, hotel guests should be calculated with the same approach as residents. You will also want to make sure to include the other applicable fixture groups such as hotel employees (FTE) and transients or visitors that visit the hotel for guest events and conferences. thanks, Devon

we are working on a hotel project where the residents will also use the water fixtures in common areas like restaurants. in that case what is the applicable baseline? it's true that fixtures in common areas should be taken as public but in the LEED online form when you select the fixture family as public it only takes the FTE in to account not the residents. should we manually change it leave it as it is?
