Thermal comfort

Key contribution

ISOVER provides green building solutions that ensure thermal comfort by keeping a comfortable temperature in all points of the building.

Aim

To promote occupants’ productivity, comfort, and well-being by providing quality thermal comfort.

Detailed requirement

The project must meet the requirements for both thermal comfort design and thermal comfort control.

The building must be designed (heating, ventilating, air-conditioning systems, building envelope) to meet the requirements of specific standards on thermal comfort (ASHRAE standard 55-2010 or ISO and CEN standards).

In addition, individual thermal comfort controls must be provided for at least 50% of individual occupant spaces. For all shared multi-occupant spaces, a group thermal comfort control can be installed. Thermal comfort controls allow occupants, whether in individual spaces or shared multi-occupant spaces, to adjust at least one of the following in their local environment: air temperature, radiant temperature, air speed, and humidity.

Our contribution

ISOVER offers a large range of thermal insulation solutions meeting all the technical requirements of the different applications in residential and non-residential buildings, for new build and renovation. Our solutions are adapted for metallic or massive construction buildings, wooden or steel frame constructions.
With the VARIO® System, ISOVER has the ideal range of products to make the building shell perfectly airtight and protected against moisture. The VARIO® airtightness membranes help regulate moisture in the construction as they adapt to the climate conditions in order to protect the building fabrics. In winter, the membranes block the moisture generated inside the rooms and prevent it from penetrating into the building’s structure; in summer, they allow the moisture to escape outside the building structure. In many countries, ISOVER facilitates thermal modelling through Building Information Modelling (BIM) available files.
