Intent 1:
To limit the probability of an inability to repair
malfunctioning or inoperable building services.
This is to limit the probability of:
- an inadequate control of the temperature of interior
spaces or relative humidity,
- inadequate ventilation,
- the production of hazardous combustion products,
- continuously leaking water supply pipes, which could
lead to the accumulation of moisture, which could lead to the generation
of pollutants from biological growth or from materials that become
unstable on wetting, or
- continuously leaking sewer pipes.
This is to limit the probability of:
- negative effects on the air quality of indoor spaces,
and
- the inadequate thermal comfort of persons.
This is to limit the probability of harm to persons.
