Resum

El manteniment dels ambients interiors òptims dels edificis històrics per a la integritat estructural i la preservació de les col·leccions, són objectius inherentment complexos i multifacètics. A més, els ambients interiors no sols afecten les col·leccions i a l’edifici, sinó que també cal tindre en compte la satisfacció dels ocupants. Aquesta investigació avalua l’impacte dels problemes tèrmics i d’humitat causats per una unitat de condensació de HVAC en una paret de 265 anys d’antiguitat en un lloc del Patrimoni Mundial de la UNESCO en el clima càlid i humit de Sant Antoni, Texas (els EUA). Es va dur a terme una investigació de camp sobre la Indoor Environmental Quality (IEQ) centrada especialment en l’impacte de la HVAC en un mur pròxim. El cas d’estudi és un assentament històric únic que inclou una església de pedra calcària que reflecteix una tipologia similar a la de múltiples edificis religiosos distribuïts pel sud-oest dels Estats Units. Els resultats d’aquest article subratllen, entre altres qüestions, l’impacte negatiu d’una mala integració dels sistemes actius en les estructures històriques, i destaquen la necessitat de continuar investigant en aquest tema.
