Assessment criteria
1 Use the BREEAM Wat 01 calculator to assess the efficiency of
the domestic water-consuming components.
2 Use the standard Wat 01 method (see Methodology on the
next page) to compare the water consumption
(litres/person/day) for the assessed building against a baseline
performance. Award BREEAM credits based
upon Table 8.1 below. Where it is not possible to use the
standard method, complete the assessment using the
alternative Wat 01 method (see Methodology on the next
page).
3 If a greywater or rainwater system (see Definitions on page
210) is specified, use its yield in L/person/day to offset potable
water demand from components.
4 If a greywater or rainwater system is specified and installed:
4.a Greywater systems in compliance with BS 8525-1:2010
Greywater systems - Part 1 Code of Practice (157).
4.b Rainwater systems in compliance with BS EN 16941-
1:2018(158).
