Abstract It is important to control indoor environment for influence on health and comfort of occupants in large-sized discount stores. On the other hand large-sized discount stores have a large number of visitors, vestibules, open spaces, high energy consumption and increasing of outside air intake. This study aims to offer the design data of building services system that can save energy and control environment through field measurement selecting two large-sized discount stores. Indoor environment factors such as temperature, relative humidity, air velocity and concentrations of CO2, CO gas and TSP were measured and evaluated. In each case of CO2, and CO gas, its maximum values were 2,800ppm and 20ppm. So proper strategy for the indoor air quality is indispensable in this type of building. Dry bulb temperature varies from 18℃ to 28℃ according to a measuring point and time. From this results, it is inferred these buildings had excessive equipment capacity. In terms of economical and environmental points, these data will be utilized to the design of HVAC system of retail facilities.
