flow_per_area

schedule
A fractional schedule for the use of hot water over the course of the year. The fractional values will get multiplied by the _flow_per_area to yield a complete water usage profile.
target_temp
The target temperature of the water out of the tap in Celsius. This the temperature after the hot water has been mixed with cold water from the water mains.
sensible_fract
A number between 0 and 1 for the fraction of the total hot water load given off as sensible heat in the zone.
latent_fract
