NC-v4 WEc1:Outdoor water use reduction

Reclaimed water use

If I am using all reclaimed/recycled water, do I still need to use the calculator. Where do I download the calculator? By using reclaimed/recycled water, do I get 2 points?

Ann, tools for documentation can be accessed in the Doc Toolkit tab above (for LEEDuser members).You will need to show reduced water use to meet the credit requirements. Using reclaimed water is only viable for earning additional points after you have shown savings.

Tristan, If you show the reduced water use to meet the credit requirements can you still have a permanent irrigation system using reclaimed water for 2 points?

The idea is that even you have much reclaimed water, you must maintain minimum level of water efficiency, stated in the prerequisite, therefore, the calculator is needed.

If i demonstrate prerequisite compliance with calculator and further if my project uses recycled water then will project be awarded as 100% reduction (2 points)? Please confirm  Thanks
