For the modern type schools, they are represented by Sekolah Agama Menengah Bestari Jais USJ 5, Sekolah Menengah Kebangsaan USJ 4 and Sekolah Menengah Kebangsaan Seafield. The thermal comfort level measurement is carried out using the Comfy Meter instrument and all the result will be calculated by Comfy Meter software and presented in table and graph forms in NEC laptop computer. Then, all the data are transferred into more compact form as can be seen in Chapter 6. In achieving the objectives of this study, both internal and external aspect for each school are takerrinto accountTThe comfort level instrument measured internal comfort level (all fans are being switched off) and then the results are analysed with consideration of surrounding area of the schools.
