I’m working on a project that has transient occupants. How does the IEQ space matrix address transients, and are transients required to have access to the controls?

Do I have to include all individual and multi-occupant spaces and do they have to be consistent across IEQc6.1 and IEQc6.2?

The categories given in the IEQ space matrix don’t really fit how some of the rooms in my project will be used. What should I do?

NC-2009 IEQc6.2:Controllability of Systems—Thermal Comfort

wall mounted thermal controller

Hi, Initial design review has just been returned for our project. In the review comment, example of accessibble individual controls are defined as hand-held remote controls or wall-mounted controls located no higher than 48 inches AFF. Our project has wall-mounted controls located higher than 48 inch. Does anyone know whether the location of switch is mandatory to meet this credit? Is it mere recommendation? Any comment would appreciated. Thank you.

There may be code implications. Always something to look at. ADA may not allow them to be that high.
