Outdoor Water Factors

This section summarizes the outdoor water factors.

Factors influencing the outdoor usage of the building include the irrigated area, the use of timed sprinklers, the presence of a pool, and other water using equipment. These can be modified in this section of the Water Estimator to adjust the outdoor water usage. Since the use of 'Native Vegetation Landscaping' changes the demand for water outdoors, specifying this measure in the 'Net-Zero Measures' section will reduce the outdoor water usage.
