Mabie Farm Park - Energy Demand

Hot Water

The hot water heating requirement was calculated based on a hot water temperature of 50^oC and cold water temperature of 10^oC. The hot water consumptions were assumed to be:

Table 1. Hot Water Consumption

Summer visitor numbers range between 2,000 – 3,000 people per week and this falls to around 50 when the farm park is closed during the winter.

Based on the energy demand methodology, the monthly heat requirement for hot water was calculated.
