The most likely group of documents to support both Indoor Environmental Quality Credit, Thermal
Comfort, and Indoor Environmental Quality Credit, Interior Lighting, Option 1. Lighting Control is C,
lighting plans, surveys of occupants, sequence of operations.
Lighting plans show the layout and type of lighting fixtures, as well as the lighting controls, such as
dimmers, timers, occupancy sensors, or daylight sensors. Surveys of occupants provide feedback on
the satisfaction and comfort level of the building users regarding the thermal and lighting conditions.
Sequence of operations describes how the mechanical and lighting systems operate and respond to
different scenarios, such as occupancy, temperature, or daylight levels.
These documents can demonstrate that the project meets the requirements for both credits, which
are:
For Thermal Comfort, the project must design the HVAC systems and the building envelope to meet
the requirements of ASHRAE Standard 55-2010, Thermal Environmental Conditions for Human
Occupancy, or a local equivalent, and provide individual thermal comfort controls for at least 50% of
the individual occupant spaces, and group thermal comfort controls for all shared multi-occupant
spaces1.
For Interior Lighting, Option 1. Lighting Control, the project must provide individual lighting controls
that enable adjustments to suit individual task needs for at least 90% of the individual occupant
spaces, and provide lighting system controls for all shared multi-occupant spaces that allow
occupants to adjust the lighting to meet group needs and p
