The WELL Building Standard was developed by the International WELL Building Institute (IWBI a California-registered public benefit corporation) in 2013 and is now a globally recognised standard. It overarchingly aims to create environments that support the physical, mental, and social wellbeing of their occupants.

The WELL Thermal Comfort concept promotes human productivity and provision of optimal thermal comfort for all building users through improved HVAC system design and control and by meeting individual thermal preferences.

Context

Thermal comfort is one of the highest contributing factors influencing overall human satisfaction in buildings.

Thermal Comfort impacts individual levels of motivation, alertness, focus and mood. Its influence on the integumentary (skin, hair, nails), endocrine (hormone producing glands) and respiratory systems also allows thermal comfort to play a large role in our health, wellbeing and productivity.

The indoor thermal environment also impacts a buildings’ energy use since cooling and heating in developed and many developing countries account for approximately half of a building’s energy consumption.
