Aim and Scope
The main goal of the conference is to discuss and give recommendations for improvement of indoor environmental quality, functionality and economy both in new and refurbished buildings. In cold climates, in particular, energy saving measures are essential in all kinds of buildings, but this may represent a health hazard if not balanced with adequate ventilation and other IEQ measures. The Conference will focus on goals, conditions, challenges, pitfalls and solutions.
