Indoor environment quality, IEQ, is considered as an indicator of the level of comfort which is not confined to the thermal conditions, it includes elements such as thermal comfort, acoustic comfort, indoor air quality and visual comfort. Knowledge of IEQ is useful for rehabilitation of buildings, for example, it can indicate areas which require improvement measures of the parameters which affects indoor environment. We must consider that indicators of comfort are only valid for the stationary regime. An energy evaluation of building is required for a good interpretation of indoor environment quality index (I-IEQ) depending on energy consumption and possibly to finding increase in energy consumption in order to include IIEQ in a higher class.
