Thermal Comfort
The Thermal Comfort hub is dedicated to improving the comfort levels of homes throughout the year by addressing issues related to overheating in the summer and underheating in the winter.
By identifying and mitigating key factors that contribute to temperature extremes within homes, the hub helps housing providers develop strategies to maintain optimal indoor climates. This focus on thermal comfort not only improves the well-being of residents but also reduces the risk of health issues associated with temperature-related stress. The hub provides tools and knowledge that help create energy-efficient, comfortable homes that are better equipped to handle seasonal fluctuations.
