What does ASHRAE 55 specify regarding indoor environments?

  1. Certification for hospital safety

  2. Guidelines for emergency power supply

  3. Thermal environmental conditions for human occupancy

  4. Standards for combustible gas safety

The correct answer is: Thermal environmental conditions for human occupancy

ASHRAE 55 specifies thermal environmental conditions for human occupancy, focusing on creating comfortable and healthy indoor environments. This standard addresses various factors that can impact thermal comfort, including temperature, humidity, air velocity, and clothing insulation. By providing guidelines on how to maintain these conditions, ASHRAE 55 ensures that indoor spaces are conducive to occupant well-being, productivity, and overall satisfaction. Correctly managing these thermal conditions is vital in healthcare settings, where patient comfort can significantly influence recovery and overall experience.
