Thermal comfort

Thermal comfort is key to ensuring a building’s occupants feel good and stay safe.

As France’s first group to be ISO 50001-certified (energy management) across its activities, Idex ensures heating infrastructures run smoothly, from installation and renovation through to operations and maintenance.

Thermal comfort: a day-to-day responsibility

Thermal comfort ensures total well-being for occupants throughout the year, and goes hand-in-hand with energy performance. Thermal comfort is an individual matter and is generally linked to temperature, but a number of other factors come into play, such as:

- Indoor humidity

- Wall radiation and temperature

- Air movement and ventilation

- Heating method

- Temperature-regulating facilities

- Air breathability levels

- Indoor air quality, also known as IAQ (dust, smells).

The way in which temperatures are regulated is just as important as the heating technology used.
