Schools-2009 WEc3: Water Use Reduction
I am working on a vocational high school that has shampoo bowls in the cosmetology classroom. Do these fixtures need to be included in WEc3 and if so as what type of fixture? Thanks!

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?

Ara, to answer a question like this I always refer to the list of regulated fixtures that are covered in the credit language. If the fixture is one of those types (a sink, toilet, shower, etc.) then you should include them. If not, then don't.In this case, my opinion is don't include them—they seem quite different from a lav sink or shower. Other opinions?
