Standardizing Water Audits in Existing Homes: The New BPI 1200 Annex

Residential water audits vary widely in scope, methodology, and reporting. The BPI 1200 standard will be out for public comment on September 25th (pending ANSI approval) and it includes a new Annex which establishes a standardized protocol for conducting water audits in existing homes, providing clear guidance on audit procedures, data collection, and documentation.

Developed by a working group of industry subject matter experts, the Annex is designed to support consistent, defensible water assessments that can be applied across programs, utilities, and jurisdictions. This session will introduce the structure and technical scope of the Annex, explain its intended use, and discuss how it can help advance credibility and alignment in residential water efficiency practice. It will also include a call to action to participate in the public comment period.
