Spanish term

conforto ambiental

Spanish to English Tech/Engineering Construction / Civil Engineering
I actually have the term in Romanian, but since the languages are similar, I thought I'd get an answer in a shorter time here. So please make your comments in English.
THe term refers to the environment we're living in (heating, sound, etc) Thanks

as for the context, this is the name of a technical conference dealing with "installations for buildings and ... (this term)". most papers deal with heating, some deal with the treatment of waste water, etc.

4 KudoZ points awarded for this answer. Comment: "thank you all for your help. Finally, I decided to leave it as "ambient comfort", but I didn't need the term during interpreting. Here's something I've found which is similar to one of the subjects discussed in the conference. Ambient comfort is measured in PMV, a method of evaluating ambient comfort devised by the Danish physicist, Fanger. PMV is the reference parameter for the correct assessment of ambient comfort indicated by ISO 7726 and 7730 standards. http://www.robur.it/en/ricerca-sviluppo/archimede1.html"
