Although the impact of climatic changes differs depending on the location and use of the building, in future almost every residential and office building will require cooling. Anyone planning a new build is well advised to carry out an analysis of exterior and interior comfort levels, define summer heat insulation requirements and maximum acceptable interior temperatures, and request proof of thermal comfort. For existing buildings that don\u2019t meet current or future requirements in summer, there are other viable measures that can be implemented.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
With comfortable indoor temperatures increasingly considered a criterion for rentability, it makes sense for property owners to invest in climate control for their properties. Buildings with a high level of climate comfort are future-proof, their market value increases and they usually attract higher rental income.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The new white paper, \u2018Cooling buildings efficiently\u2019 (23 pages), shows how we can build or renovate properties today to ensure they continue to offer a high level of comfort in the climate of the future.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
