The paper highlights the topical issue of ensuring the appropriate thermal comfort level and reducing energy consumption by public buildings. Thermal modernization, in turn, allows increasing the level of thermal comfort, which is not taken into account and evaluated in practice, although the relevant standards for comfort conditions and categories of buildings to ensure comfort have been introduced in Ukraine. The aim of the study is to analyze the impact of thermal modernization on the level of energy consumption and thermal comfort. The paper analyzes the change in the level of comfort before and after thermal modernization, defines the comfortable conditions category of the building, presents the change in the mean radiant temperature, as one of the main factors of PMV change in these conditions. PMV has been found to vary from -0.7 in the cold months to 0.2 in the off-season. Changing the thermal resistance can increase the PMV. The wall of the S orientation is characterized by larger fluctuations of PMV, which is due to the inflow of solar radiation and as a consequence of increasing the mean room radiant temperature. The change in the value of energy consumption is analyzed, the class of energy efficiency and the category for providing comfortable conditions are determined. Such an approach on the example of a real building is an example for conducting energy audits and certification taking into account comfort indicators.
