BEopt: water recirculating pump

How do I add a water recirculating pump into BEopt? I know I want a recirculating pump on a particular project, even though it may result in a higher electric cost, it will likely save on water consumption. So I'd like to hardwire that into BEopt as the go-to option for the optimization, and I'd like to specify that it's on a timer. Is there a way to do this?

BTW, modeling water consumption is a function that BEopt should consider int the future, especially as we see more drought in the western U.S.
