BS EN 15759-1:2011EN 15759-1:2011 (E) 5 Introduction Churches, chapels and other places of worship such as mosques and synagogues (referred to collectively in the text of this standard as “places of worship”) are an important part of European c
24、ultural heritage. The buildings and their interiors, containing cultural heritage objects, are documents of our heritage that society agrees need to be preserved for present and future generations. The indoor climate is a critical factor in conserving the fabric of buildings and the objects they hou
25、se. This European Standard is motivated by the need to reflect the special characteristics of places of worship, conditions which are not addressed in standards for the heating of other kinds of buildings. The defining characteristics of these buildings are their construction (often early building t
26、echniques); the fact that they were not designed as living or working spaces; their intermittent use; and the vulnerability of their surface decoration and contents. Originally, most historic places of worship had little or no heating. Nowadays, buildings in cold climate regions may be heated in ord
27、er to: a) provide thermal comfort for worshippers, staff and visitors (referred collectively in this text as “users”); b) improve the indoor climate conditions for the conservation of the building and its contents; c) achieve a combination of (a) and (b) in buildings where both conservation and ther
28、mal comfort have to be considered. The conventional climate requirements for thermal comfort can sometimes be in conflict with the requirements for conservation and may therefore call for compromise. A decision on changing or replacing the heating system in a place of worship generally depends on a
29、variety of factors: the pattern of use of the building (e.g. frequency, numbers of users, opening hours for visitors), its liturgical uses, the significance, condition, and vulnerability of the building and its often valuable contents, thermal comfort of the users, costs (installation, operation and
30、 maintenance), energy efficiency and sustainability, visual and audible impact, aesthetics, impact on the building structure, safety, and national laws and regulations. This standard provides guidelines in order to facilitate the best possible decision on behalf of the end users. The standard is div
31、ided into the following steps: a) assessment of the building, its interior and contents; b) determine an indoor climate specification with respect to conservation and thermal comfort; c) determine an appropriate heating strategy; d) select and design an appropriate heating system; e) implement the p
32、roposed changes; f) evaluate the effectiveness of the heating system with respect to the specification. This is the first standard in a series of standards on indoor climate and climate control in cultural heritage buildings. The air exchange of a building has a fundamental influence on its indoor c
33、limate and climate control; general considerations are given in Clause 5. Ventilation will be dealt with fully in the second part of the series of standards on indoor climate in cultural heritage buildings, prEN 15759-2, Conservation of cultural property Indoor climate Part 2: Ventilation.

34、59-1:2011EN 15759-1:2011 (E) 6 1 Scope This European Standard provides guidelines for the selection of heating strategies and heating systems in churches, chapels and other places of worship such as mosques and synagogues, in order to prevent damage to cultural property while at the same time creati
35、ng an indoor climate that allows for a sustainable use of these buildings. It applies to most kinds of places of worship regardless of size and construction. This European Standard applies not only to the introduction of new heating systems but also to the replacement of old ones. This European Stan
36、dard applies to buildings that are part of cultural heritage or that house cultural heritage objects. This European Standard deals with indoor climate conditions, heating strategies and technical solutions for their implementation but not with the technical equipment itself. 2 Normative references T
