About 90% of the annual costs of a typical company operating in office environment are related to the personnel working there. Comfort and productivity are affected by indoor air, temperatures, air velocity and humidity, but also by the sound level and lighting. Thus, conditions have a great effect on user/tenant satisfaction and thus on the length / continuation of lease contracts.

In addition, the profitability of an office real-estate investment is affected by the life-cycle costs of the building. With HVAC systems' different investment, maintenance and energy performance patterns, great variation is found in life-cycle costs. In addition to running costs, the in-built flexibility of ventilation and air conditioning systems is significant in the cost structure.
