Dear LEED Users,
I have a 550,000 sf. multi-use commercial project where the main tenants are bank employees. With a total of 2000 FTEs, 1800 of the FTEs are bank employees. Currently, we are providing a total of 10 Showers. Six of the Showers (3 Men and 3 Women) are a part of a fitness gym in the building for the bank employees. The remainder are for restaurant employees and janitorial services.
My question is, do the 1800 FTE Bank employees need dedicated 9 Showers or is the facility meeting the quotient from the shower count as a whole?
Thanks in Advance,
Greg

Hi Greg,
You can meet the requirement with the shower count as a whole as long as they are all within the necessary proximity (same building obviously would work), and your FTEs have access to all the showers. The only hiccup I could forsee is if you have limited access to the gym showers (because you need membership or something).
