[PERSON] and [PERSON] [38] introduced an enhanced model-based predictive control practical system considering both the PMV index and the outdoor environment conditions. [PERSON] et al. [39] proposed a control system in which each occupant can input their preferences on the set-point temperature. It was shown that the policy can benefit occupants by increasing the aggregated thermal comfort and also building management in terms of reducing the cost for maintaining a set-point temperature. [PERSON] et al. [40] showed with two test-beds at Guangzhou and Lanzhou in China that the satisfaction-based control can achieve a more comfortable and stable indoor thermal environment than set-point-based control. Moreover, the satisfaction-based control reduced consumption by about 15.3% and 11.9% in these test-beds. In a small office building, for five climate zones representative of the United States, [PERSON] et al. [41] found that occupancy-based strategies could bring 22-50% and 47-87% reduction in electricity and natural gas use, respectively, compared to no thermostat control. Considering the response of 1400 thermal comfort surveys in a naturally ventilated building, [PERSON] et al. [42] found that with adaptive control behaviors, occupants were thermally neutral and satisfied from 18 to 27 \({}^{\circ}\)C. Their satisfaction exceeded that predicted by ASHRAE Standard 55 or PMV-based ISO standards. Finally, [PERSON] et al. [43] presented an automatic HVAC control system, featuring real-time occupancy recognition, dynamic occupancy prediction, and simulation-guided model predictive control, implemented in a low-cost embedded system. This system was able to achieve more than 30% energy saving but also the comfort level. Despite several studies being available on comparisons of heating emitters, the analysis of the literature underlines the lack of data for Mediterranean regions but also the poorness in the monitoring investigations. Indeed, the experimental analysis are based on short periods, and the indoor parameters are monitored in a few points used for the description of the whole ambient area. Moreover, comparison of radiant and convective heating terminals has not found a general preference according to experimental and numerical results. Another critical point is that the analysis of thermal comfort with baseboard heaters is not supported by data, since the available papers are focused mainly on designs for increasing the energy efficiency. The available researchers have not investigated the behaviors of the different systems by highlighting the effects of the heat gains that instead give an important contribution, mainly in the Mediterranean climate. Indeed, during the winter, the solar radiation, the occupants, and the equipment can contribute to create the comfort conditions also with lower set-points, and thus it is possible to implement cheap energy measures according to the type of emitters installed in the building. Considering these issues, this paper proposes an experimental comparison during the heating period of three emitters supplied by a gas boiler in a Mediterranean climate to help designers to choose the proper system and management strategy with the dual purpose of selecting a comfortable but energy saving-oriented operating temperature. To give more detail, it is proposed to elaborate measured data for some reference days and weeks by analyzing the differences in thermal comfort conditions and local discomfort factors under the real operating conditions of a typical Mediterranean climate. The complete monitoring of the heated room is proposed thanks to several types of sensors that allow a discrete but detailed distribution of temperature to be discussed. The analysis of these data allows also a discussion of the operating regimes in term of set-point temperature control.
