Shower Calculator Updated
January 20, 2009 · Filed Under Green
I made a few changes to the Shower Calculator to allow more metrics to be entered as well as a few other enhancements. They include:
- Added a Water Cost field to allows for the entering of the cost of water per 1000 gallons.
- Added an Efficiency field that allows for the entering of the efficiency factor of your particular water heater.
- Added a Water Temperature field to allow you to enter your groundwater temperature. This is the temperature in which water enters your water heater.
- Added a Shower Temperature field to allow for the entering of cold/hot your shower raises.
- Provide how much the entered water heater uses depending on its energy source in the output.
- Provide a breakdown of the total cost of a shower by showing the cost of both water and the water heater.
Please let me know of any additional things you wish me to add to this calculator. Also, if there are any problems with it let me know so I can fix them immediately.
