NC-2009 WEp1: Water Use Reduction—20% Reduction
We have come across an issue regarding flowrates and pressure.
LEED states 2.5 gallons per minute at 80 psi for showers for example.
Our manufacturer data sheet states 1.53 gallons per minute at 1.45 psi. When entering in the LEED form, should we just enter 1.53 or should make any calculations to ensure the pressures are the same?
