EBOM-2009 IEQc2.3:Occupant Comfort—Thermal Comfort Monitoring

HVAC zone

I have a project that has fancoils separated by floor. Do I have to install umidity sensors in all rooms in all floors or can I monitore just one room by type (i.e: kitchen, office, meeting room, conference room, etc.) or even just install one sensor in wich floor?

Hi Gabriel, The credit language requires humidity monitoring by "humidity zone," so some engineering judgement must come into play here to determine where different humidity conditions are likely to occur in your building. For example, I would expect a large kitchen in a cafeteria to have different humidity levels than an office, but for a small break room, it might not be an issue. At a minimum for this credit, you should provide one sensor for each cooling control system and document the assumptions for their placement.
