Re a heating / cooling system, please see below, thanks

Il centro commerciale mette a disposizione una potenza frigorifera, come descritto nel pilotage, di 40 W/mq, per un totale di 7000 W. Tale potenza, giudicata insufficiente per garantire un adeguato confort ambientale nel periodo estivo visti i notevoli carichi termici presenti nell’attività, sarà integrata tramite l’installazione di sette ventilconvettori tipo Aermec modello FCL-64, quattro dei quali con impianto a quattro tubi in modo da poter gestire adeguatamente il confort ambientale anche durante il periodo invernale.

comfort zone


Explanation:
Human comfort

Inevitably 'comfort' is a very subjective matter. The Engineer aims to ensure 'comfort' for most people found from statistical surveys.
Most people (90%) are comfortable when the air temperature is between 18-22°C and the % saturation is between 40-65%. This zone can be shown on the psychrometric chart, and is known as the comfort zone.
