Editorial summary

The study measures seasonal and spatial variation in VOC surface emissions and indoor concentrations in a public building insulated with wood wool. FLEC cells were placed directly on building surfaces for the field measurements, revealing strong effects of surface location, orientation and seasonal hygrothermal conditions.

Editorial, non-verbatim summary based on the publisher abstract and HAL full text.

FLEC use

Direct FLEC measurements

The full text states that a FLEC was placed on each tested surface with a 0.03 m³/h inlet flow, establishing direct use in the authors' field campaign.
