Similar to what's available for plug/fuel loads and what's proposed for lighting.

New elements:

  • ClothesDryer: Load (0-2, electric or fuel)
  • ClothesWasher: Load (0-1, electric) and HotWaterLoad
  • Dishwasher: Load (0-1, electric) and HotWaterLoad
  • Freezer: Load (0-1, electric)
  • Refrigerator: Load (0-1, electric)
  • Dehumidifier: Load (0-1, electric)
  • CookingRange: Load (0-1, electric or fuel)
  • Oven: Load (0-1, electric or fuel)
  • HotWaterDistribution: HotWaterLoad
  • WaterFixture: HotWaterLoad

Available enumeration choices are:

  • Electric units: "kWh/year" or "W" (same as used for plug loads)
  • Fuel units: "therm/year" or "Btuh" (same as used for fuel loads)
  • Hot water units: "gal/day" or "gal/year"

Notes:

  • Water usage can be confusing when dealing with hot water end uses (e.g., dishwasher) vs mixed water end uses (e.g., showerhead or faucet). Need some documentation to ensure consistency.
  • I excluded units of gpm (gal/min) from HotWaterLoad because A) water fixtures already have a FlowRate element and B) no one probably cares about the flow rate of hot water use for things like dishwashers or clothes washers.
