FAQs about IEQc6.2 :

In some areas, individual fan coil units can be adjusted through the BMS, which can be accomplished by the occupant phoning the building manager. As each unit can be controlled, is this sufficient for occupant controllability? A benefit is that the BMS ca

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?

Hi The credit defines comfort according to the four primary comfort criteria identified by ASHRAE 55-2004: air temperature radiant temperature humidity air speed. A comfort control meeting the credit requirements needs to only address one of these four. For Humidity, If we provide indivisual humidifier that normaly use in home per desk, is it acceptable? (just like task lighting) Thank you ~

Hi Sung Su, I haven't seen this done before but I do think you could meet the credit requirements in this way especially if your project is in a location with high humidity. You would just need to make sure that at least 50% of your individual workstations have access to these controls. Also, don't forget the multi-occupant spaces. Those spaces would need to have general thermal comfort criteria controls. Just for my edification, what is the name of the individual humidifier that you're specifying? How is it installed, etc?

I mean that the most common humidifier, an "evaporative", "cool mist", or "wick humidifier", consists of just a few basic parts: a reservoir, wick and fan. I think it can be installed by putting on the indivisual desk. Please refer to this link --> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Humidifier Thank you Lauren~~~
