BB101 lunchbreak?

Post by swilson »

Simple question (and somewhat fof a poll)

do you guys normally allow for a lunch break when assessing thermal comfort under BB101?

Seems to be how you Interpret the wording whether are not you include for a break or not.

I include the hour within the assessed time frame but profile the occupancy to drop. Yep, I'm having my cake and eating it :lol:

Hi,

I drop the occupancy right down for an hour, maybe just allowing for one or two teachers being there. Every time I visit a school for a survey that seems to be what happens!
