Abstract

Indoor environment quality (IEQ) closely relates to the health and wellbeing of persons who use the space there (The National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health, 2013). Indoor air quality (IAQ), thermal comfort, lighting comfort, and acoustic comfort are the four primary IEQ factors. Previous research demonstrates that the quality of a building’s indoor environment significantly affects occupants’ health (Hoskins, 2003), satisfaction (Cheung et al., 2021), comfort and wellbeing (Al Horr et al., 2016a), as well as cognitive function and productivity (Al Horr et al., 2016b; Wang et al., 2021) The IEQ is also significantly associated with the energy use and efficiency of buildings (Roumi et al., 2021).
