Abstract

Spaces seek to meet increasingly demanding comfort conditions without forgetting energy efficiency criteria. In thissense, care centres for the elderly are of vital importance and are a clear example where the interior conditions and the improvementsto be adopted are focused on pursuing the user's wellbeing. In addition, this type of buildings usually shares spaces with multipleuses, which makes it difficult to establish a common criterion for action. This paper analyses the monitoring work carried out aspart of an energy audit of a publicly owned gerontological centre. A building characterised by its large dimensions in whichadministrative, social, and service uses coexist in addition to residential use. The objective of the monitoring was to verify andquantify the degree of thermal discomfort perceived by the users and collected in previous interviews. Given the particularities ofthe case study, the system implemented had to be able to overcome the barriers generated by the dimensions of the building and alsoto be a low-cost and modular system in order to be able to extend the capacities and monitoring points. In terms of the resultsobtained, the monitoring has made it possible to detect and quantify the indoor environmental conditions of the most representativespaces. On the other hand, it has been possible to verify the correct operation of the proposed solution as a whole, as well as to detectpoints for improvement.
