Lighting is switched on via a motion sensor in the corridor. To reduce energy consumption, the lighting is automatically switched off when no one is present. Remember that lighting and computers are switched off after the end of the working day. An office room corresponds to a consumption of approximately 1000 kWh/year.
Force

If changes are needed in the facility, contact Akademiska Hus.
Fire
Fire protection work is carried out on an ongoing basis. Generally, the landlord is responsible for fire protection outside the premises and the tenant for fire protection inside the premises. This is regulated in the lease agreement.
It is important not to store, place or leave anything in the stairwell or in public areas that could pose a fire risk, make it difficult to access and clean, or be disruptive to the well-being of the occupants.
Evacuation takes place via the respective stairwell. Each tenant is responsible for ensuring that there is an updated evacuation plan.
The building is equipped with an evacuation alarm in the event of a fire. In the event of smoke, smoke detectors trigger an evacuation alarm throughout the building and a signal to evacuate is given via a doorbell. If a fire is detected, call 112, as the evacuation alarm is not directly forwarded to the Rescue Services. Try to limit the fire source by closing windows and doors.
You can manually trigger the alarm yourself using push buttons in escape routes.

Miljöbyggnad is a certification system for creating environmentally sustainable buildings. It is based on Swedish building and authority regulations and Swedish building practice. Miljöbyggnad is a receipt for important qualities of a building in terms of energy, indoor environment and materials and is used for newly produced and existing buildings regardless of size. In Miljöbyggnad, a building can achieve a bronze, silver or gold rating. Behind the certification is the non-profit association Sweden Green Building Council (SGBC).
