In case you missed it, our own Lead Web Developer, Mr. Kelly R. Lucas created the Condensate Calculator for Alex Wilson's feature in the May EBN, Alternative Water Sources: Supply-Side Solutions for Green Buildings. The formula is derived from a spread sheet made by Eddie Wilcut and Eliot Fry of the San Antonio Water System. To use, simply fill out the indoor and outdoor temperatures and humidity, followed by the tonnage of your system (straight from the sidebar: one ton of cooling is equal to 12,000 Btus per hour). Finally, adjust the capacity to reflect the capabilities and settings of your system, and voilà! You now know how much water you *could* be using for something else.
