lighting controls for building occupants to improve occupant
productivity and comfort.
Provide individual lighting controls for at least 90% of all
building occupants.
Provide lighting controls for all shared multi-occupant spaces to
meet the group needs.
- Perform preliminary lighting control calculations early in
design to determine if more or less lighting controls are required
to meet the credit.
- Review drawings carefully as the design develops to ensure the
required number of operable windows and lighting controls are
provided and documented.
- Specific types or number of controls are not defined by LEED
for shared multi-occupant spaces.
