WELL is the leading tool for advancing health and well-being in buildings globally. This presentation gives an overview of the lighting requirements in WELL v2 standard, focusing on key factors plus practical recommendations and strategies that should be considered when designing and specifying human-centric lighting in commercial spaces.

This presentation will discuss the use of Germicidal UV (and some non-UV) technologies that may be deployed  to reduce pathogens in public spaces. Various technological solutions will be explored – reviewing their history of use, discussing how they work and their effectiveness for typical commercial applications that we see today. Additionally, design considerations and techniques will be discussed in depth for applying UV disinfection technology safely and effectively, incorporating luminaire concepts to supplement the delivery of general ambient illumination.
