This paper presents a monitoring system and methodology designed for the evaluation of a prototype house, and proposed as an exemplar for comprehensive domestic monitoring. This system will enable assessment of a wide range of parameters for proof of concept and technology of the prototype. Consumption, occupancy patterns, indoor air quality, thermal conditions and building efficiency are monitored so as to gain a real-time understanding of building performance and occupant interaction with the house. The broad range of parameters will allow quantification of the correlation between for example; occupancy and consumption patterns, or air quality and ventilation system operation. Results of this monitoring study will inform future design iterations of this housing product. © Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg 2013.
