Worldwide, there is an increasing number of publications related to air cleaning and there is an increasing sale of gas phase air cleaning products. This puts a demand for verifying the influence of using air cleaning on indoor air quality, comfort, well-being and health. It is thus important to learn whether air cleaning can supplement ventilation with respect to improving air quality i.e. whether it can partly substitute the ventilation rates required by standards. There is also a need to evaluate the energy impact of using air cleaning as supplement to ventilation.

This Air Infiltration and Ventilation Centre (AIVC) webinar wants to link building performance to human wellbeing. We will introduce you into cognitive buildings, let you rethink comfort and show how you can include user satisfaction.

It is the motivation of IEA EBC Annex 80 “Resilient Cooling of Buildings” to develop, assess, and communicate active and passive solutions of resilient cooling and overheating protection. This webinar will present Case studies and policy recommendations.
