How does indoor environment change when energy efficiency of a building is improved?

Indoor environmental quality is influenced by ventilation, thermal conditions, noise, lighting, and indoor air pollutants such as particles, microbes, chemical impurities, and radon.

INSULAtE*-project aims to demonstrate how energy improvements impact on these indoor environmental parameters, and to develop a protocol for assessment of the impacts.
