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?

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

Temperature & Ventilation

Hello everyone, This question references LEED CI Canada version 1.0. The credit language makes it seem like thermal AND ventilation controls must be provided for: - 50% of individual spaces / open-plan offices - all multi-occupant spaces Our project is a large open-plan office. Our plan was to provide ventilation control through adjustable dampers in the underfloor ventilation in the open-office. However the credit language makes it sound like we would also need a thermal control for 50% of the occupants in the open-office. Does anyone have any experience with this credit and how the CaGBC will interpret?

Hi Sabrina, It looks like the LEED CI Canada 1.0 version is similar to CI v2.0 which does require the controls to address both thermal and ventilation. The reference guide doesn't appear to provide any additional content addressing what types of controls qualify for this. However, the underfloor ventilation should qualify for both as long as the outdoor air is being delivered by the underfloor mechanical heating and cooling system. Hope that helps! Lauren
