[Bldg-sim] Firehall hot water process loads

[ldegelman at suddenlink.net]

Hello Christopher,

I’ve done the MPE design work for 26 fire stations in Texas over the past 6 years.  In none of these is there any requirement for hot water serving the apparatus bay.  Fire engine washing is only done with cold water (a 2-inch line for both washing and tank filling.)  The only qualification is that all of these were in Texas.  Requirements may be different elsewhere.

Best regards,

P.S.  Hot water for domestic use is done as though it is a dormitory.

Does anyone have information on hot water process loads for firehalls?  Truck washing, etc.
