Indoor Temperature Guidelines
Carleton University is committed to the protection of the health, safety and well-being of all members of the university community. The university also strives to always provide indoor environmental conditions conducive for occupancy that will foster and support learning, working and research functions.
Environmental conditions may include temperature, relative humidity and airflow. In rare cases, these conditions might be impacted, such that normal operations may need to be altered. This is especially true during periods of warm, summer weather during transition periods between cooling and heating, but can be also any time an unexpected event occurs which impacts the normal operations.
All members of the community are responsible for reporting concerns in a timely manner to their supervisor/ manager, as well as to FMP so they can be addressed.
For information on roles, responsibilities and procedures to be followed during these rare times, see Carleton’s Indoor Temperature Extremes policy.
