HI, the new version of the credit states that dishwashers that are reused do not need to comply with the credit requirements.

Does this apply to dishwashers that are reused in the same building, or could the be reused from a clients previous office in a different location?

Thanks

It should apply to any reused dishwasher; the Energy STAR requirements are only for newly purchased ones.

Thanks! So do you know how would you document this on the Credit form? Not include it, or say it is compliant as it is reused?

I believe you just don't include it, since the tracking is for new appliances that are part of the project scope. It is always a good idea to include a little narrative or statement in the Special Circumstances box telling the reviewers up front that you have existing ones that will be reused, and that those are therefore not included in the tracking.
