FAQs about IEQc6.2 :

In some areas, individual fan coil units can be adjusted through the BMS, which can be accomplished by the occupant phoning the building manager. As each unit can be controlled, is this sufficient for occupant controllability? A benefit is that the BMS ca

I’m working on a project that has transient occupants. How does the IEQ space matrix address transients, and are transients required to have access to the controls?

Do I have to include all individual and multi-occupant spaces and do they have to be consistent across IEQc6.1 and IEQc6.2?

The categories given in the IEQ space matrix don’t really fit how some of the rooms in my project will be used. What should I do?

Hi, I have received a review comment that says “drawing confirming the location of the individual thermal controls and the location of shared multi-occupant spaces thermal controls have not been provided as required”. The system designed and installed is a VRF system with a thermostat remote control. This control does not have an exactly place, usually it stays at the working station that why it is not indicating on the drawing. Do we have to indicate the control on the plant even if the control won’t be exactly there? Thanks!

Hi Fabiano, I suggest you outline on a drawing the thermal zone served by each VRF unit. Label the drawing so that the reviewer can match up the VRF with the zone and then just show a t'stat in the zone. It shouldn't matter where. A simple narrative like the one in your 2nd paragraph should suffice to explain the system to the reviewer. It's likely they are just not familiar with the wireless sensor technology that many VRF systems use now. Good luck!
