LEEDv4 states that operable windows are eligible thermal comfort controls. However, does not go into further detail if additional requirements (such as operable window area and distance from occupants) are neccessary to be eligible. LEEDv3 required that occupants be located 20 feet inside and 10 feet to either side of the operable window and that the window size must meet ASHRAE 62.1 paragraph 5.1 criteria. Have these additional requirements been cancelled or still apply?
