In your EnergyPlus install folder, \PreProcess\HVACCurveFitTool\CurveFitTool.xlsm Even though it is intended for air-to-air, you should be able to adjust the inputs to match water temperatures on either side.
While I haven't looked at that spreadsheet, I would think air-to-water heat pumps can see a much wider range of return water temperatures (up to 120ºF or higher), compared to the relatively constant return air temperature that air-to-air heat pumps see (around room temperature, perhaps with some outdoor air mixed in). I would be cautious about using air-to-air curves for an air-to-water heat pump.
I think there is no adjustement to do. The names "Outdoor air T ( C)" "Leaving condenser water T ( C)" are just labels for this proposed example. You have to read them as "Indipendent variables" and so they can be outdoor air temperature and water outlet temperature without any change.
See the following link from EnergyPlus helpdesk website: http://energyplus.helpserve.com/Knowl...
There is a zip file with excel spreadsheets and pdf instructions.
That link appears to be for WatertoWater or WatertoAir heat pumps. Did you mean to link to a different page for AirtoAir heat pumps?
In the more recent energy plus versions, there are now example files that include biquadratic curves for air to water heat pump.

What type of ASHP are you interested in? Commercial? Residential? Traditional split-system? Mini-split?
I would be interested in Commercial type Air to water for a commercial building.
I am looking for this as well...I have a Multistack air-cooled heat pump chiller.
