There is no requirement in 90.1. If you are concerned about energy use then you may want to ask the same question on the EA forums. As for this prerequisite, 62.1 does not specifically list showers but I always count them as the same as toilets. Also, if your project is in the United States then it is most likely required by your local building code (mechanical) under Chapter 4.
