Hi We are currently dealing with a hotel project that has saunas installed. Does anyone know if the showers at the sauna can be excluded from the water use calculation? Our idea would be to exlude them either by declaring that the showers are exceptional water user (like process water) or by claiming that the FTEs have been already included in the room usage pattern. Has anyone experience with such a issues? Thanks

Julia, I'm not sure why you want to exclude the showers? We know they are going to be used by some guests—why not capture that use and seek to reduce it?
