Inquiry

The current Water Use Calculator suggests that the reference ET value be used for the month of July. The WaterSense Water Budget Data Finder was recently changed to use a reference ET value for the month of June. Can this value be used in the calculator?

Ruling

Yes, it is acceptable for project teams to use the ETo value for June. The new WaterSense link for the ETo value is: http://www.epa.gov/watersense/nhspecs/wb_data_finder.html The outdoor water use calculator will be updated to reference the new WaterSense Water Budget Data Finder.
