This MCP server provides precise calculation tools for sizing water heating systems. Use calculate_fhr_requirement to determine the necessary First Hour Rating (FHR) based on occupant demand, usage type (residential or commercial), and fuel technology recovery rates. The calculate_tank_capacity tool recommends minimum tank volumes in gallons by analyzing occupancy patterns. Additionally, use get_efficiency_comparison to compare Energy Factor (EF) benchmarks across gas, electric, and heat pump technologies. This is essential for plumbing professionals and engineers planning efficient hot water delivery systems.

How much FHR do I need for a residential house with 4 people using gas heating?

For a residential setup with 4 occupants and gas heating, the required First Hour Rating (FHR) is 52 gallons per hour.

What is the recommended tank size for a commercial building with 20 people?

For a commercial usage profile with 20 occupants, the recommended minimum tank capacity is 450 gallons.

Compare the efficiency of gas vs heat pump water heaters.

Heat pump technology offers a significantly higher Energy Factor (EF) range compared to traditional gas-fired units, making it more efficient for long-term energy savings.

Use the `calculate_frl_requirement` tool by providing the number of occupants, whether the usage is residential or commercial, and the heating fuel type (gas, electric, or heat pump).
