Domestic hot-water — Demand & Compliance (XA §6.1)
Calculates daily/annual hot-water energy, checks allowed technologies, ≤50% electric supplementary cap, editable Table 10 min storage for SWH/HP, and pipe insulation R checks (Table 11 – editable).
1) Project context
Auto-syncs with Basics.
2) Technology & supply split (XA §6.1)
XA note: electric supplementary ≤ 50% of annual average volume.
SANS 6.1 Note 3: If measures are poor, EER may drop to 0.2.
