A design for a WELL building has a dry-bulb temperature and relative humidity monitoring system. To achieve Feature T06: Thermal Comfort Monitoring the project team must confirm that

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: D

Automatic window shades can significantly influence the mean radiant temperature within a space by controlling the amount of solar radiation that enters. The mean radiant temperature is a measure of the warmth that one feels from the radiant heat exchange with surrounding surfaces. By adjusting window shades automatically based on the sun's position and intensity, the system can reduce overheating from solar gain, thereby maintaining a more comfortable and stable indoor thermal environment. This control helps in creating a space that aligns with the WELL Building Standard's focus on thermal comfort, ensuring that occupants are comfortable and productive.

Wait, is this a WELL building or a WELL-being building? I get those mixed up sometimes, haha!

B is too dense - that's a lot of sensors! I think D is more important to ensure the readings are representative.

C seems like the right answer to me. Monitoring comfort levels at the typical seated height makes sense.
