Thermal Comfort Solutions

Thermal comfort measures the degree of satisfaction perceived by the human body as a result of the heating and cooling factors in an environment. For buildings, individual satisfaction can be difficult to achieve because every human perceives temperature differently. Age, season, clothing and even desk location can all impact the way we experience our environment. However, thermal comfort is less about keeping everyone comfortable 24/7 and more about implementing solutions that help you manage temperature and humidity levels more carefully and efficiently. That’s where Trane excels.

Optimizing thermal comfort can impact more than just your people and building systems—it can directly affect your business, too. Here’s how you could benefit from improving your thermal comfort:

• Increase occupant comfort
• Stimulate productivity by up to 10%¹
• Protect human wellness
• Generate more purchases from retail customers²
• Maximize energy savings³

Trane’s temperature control solutions provide unmatched visibility into your HVAC performance, empowering you with actionable insights to make precise optimizations in real-time. This helps you carefully manage comfort levels to only use the energy you need. In addition, Trane’s integrated system controls allow you to delegate HVAC management to numerous users, including enterprise managers, building managers, and even individual tenants.

When your occupants are uncomfortable, you feel it in a number of ways. They might tell you if it’s too hot or too cold, but over time it could rear its head in your bottom line. In fact, multiple studies have shown that the more comfortable people are, the more productive they become.⁴ The reason for discomfort in your building is likely unique to you, and identifying the root cause is the first step to resolving it. Trane has a deep expertise in the dynamics between buildings, systems and people, and we follow a proven 3-step process to help you understand what’s happening inside your walls.

Consistently monitoring your indoor temperature is critical to sustain a healthy, comfortable space. That’s why Trane offers personalized thermal and humidity management solutions to optimize performance according to your needs. In addition, our integrated system controls let you empower building managers, tenants and other stakeholders with real-time monitoring access to proactively manage comfort levels and consume energy more efficiently.
