What is the minimum percentage reduction required to earn exemplary performance under the metered water use option for WE credit indoor water use reduction?

  1. 15%

  2. 20%

  3. 25%

  4. 30%

The correct answer is: 25%

To earn exemplary performance under the metered water use option for the Indoor Water Use Reduction credit in LEED, achieving a minimum of a 25% reduction in indoor water use is required. This exemplary performance is aimed at encouraging projects to go beyond the standard credit requirements, demonstrating a commitment to sustainability through advanced water efficiency measures. This specific percentage reflects the threshold set by the LEED rating system, which encourages higher performance levels in water conservation. By meeting or exceeding this standard, projects can not only earn extra points but also contribute to broader environmental goals related to water conservation and resource management. The percentages below this level do not meet the criteria for exemplary performance, emphasizing the importance of striving for greater efficiency in water use to maximize environmental benefits.
