Abstract
Air quality in the classroom can affect the health of students because students spend a lot of time in the classroom for learning activities. In addition to the air quality of healthy buildings, it is also related to thermal comfort. During the learning process, a comfortable learning interaction is needed, to make it easier for teachers to deliver learning materials. Therefore, this study evaluated the classrooms of SDN 10 Banda Aceh and SDN Kajhu Aceh Besar which were used as objects of research studies. This study uses a quantitative approach through measuring air quality parameters, namely CO2 (Carbon Dioxide), HCHO (Formaldehyde), and TVOC (Total Volatile Organic Compound) concentrations, while thermal comfort, namely air temperature, humidity, and wind speed using an air quality detector and hotwire anemometer. The level of air quality is evaluated based on MENKES/SK/2011 while thermal comfort is evaluated based on the Indonesian national standard SNI and adaptive thermal comfort. Based on the results of the research, the air quality in both schools still meets the MENKES/SK/2011 standard, while the level of thermal comfort in both schools is classified as uncomfortable according to SNI and adaptive thermal comfort.
