FAQs about EQc5 :

Can I exempt a public space from the controls requirement? The owner doesn’t want visitors adjusting the thermostat all the time.

I have a naturally ventilated office with lots of operable windows. Do I need to add any other controls?

NC-v4 EQc5:Thermal comfort

Thermal controls types

Hi all,

The RG lists some of the eligible ways of thermal comfort controls as plug-in desktop fans, humidifiers and de-humidifiers. So, if we provide switches at applicable areas which lets the user of that space either plug-in a desktop fan or a humidifier based on their choice, also qualify. Can providing such switches count towards thermal comfort controls? Has anyone come across this before?

Providing the switch alone would not qualify. You would also need to provide the comfort-controlling devices (fans, humidifiers, etc).
