Understanding the Impact of Thermal Performance on Thermal Comfort in Dwellings: A Large‐Sample Study With a Homogeneous User Profile

open access: yesIndoor Air, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
Initiatives abound for improving energy efficiency in existing dwellings stock, yet the impact in their indoor thermal comfort conditions, postretrofit performance, and comfort levels are insufficiently explored. Studies that evaluate this parameter, enabling the validation or adjustment of current policies of retrofit actions, would be essential. Thus,
