I'm working on a community center that pretty much works as a facility. they will have new high efficiency showers that are accessible to all members (80 people per day), however the water efficiency calculator on the template only calculates consumption by the FTEs which are about 10. Should adjust the usage times on the shower by the members in order to demonstrate savings?

Hi Catalina,
Based on the project type (community center facility with showers accessible to all members) it seems reasonable to include some visitor shower use. In the WEp1 Form calculator I would create an additional fixture group just for the visitor shower use (however you will likely need to list these 80 visitors in the FTE column in order for the Form to calculate this fixture group). I would provide a narrative explaining your methodology and rationale for including the visitor shower use.
