For a baseline model I typically use values from the DOE Prototype Building Models for building type and vintage . It's important to note that the WaterUse:Equipment definition includes both hot and cold water use, which I typically assume is equal.

For a baseline model I typically use values from the DOE Commercial Prototype Building Models for building type and vintage.

It's important to note that the WaterUse:Equipment definition includes both hot and cold water use, which I typically assume is equal.

For a baseline model I typically use values from the DOE Commercial Prototype Building Models for building type and vintage. These values can represent only hot water, so I recommend inspecting the models and documentation to where they come from. After that I would compare the SHW end use percentage of the PBM to your model as a rough calibration.
