Server Room AC Installation

Resilient server room cooling with redundant failover and environmental monitoring, delivering reported uptime of 99.9%.

Server Room AC Installation
Sector
IT & data centres
Timeline
2 weeks
Scope
Single server room

The challenge

  • A single, underpowered AC unit was struggling to maintain stable temperatures, putting critical IT equipment at risk.

  • The system used non-compliant refrigerant gas (R22), exposing the business to environmental and legal risks.

  • There was no redundancy, limited monitoring and no real-time alerts, increasing the risk of downtime and data loss.

Services delivered

  • Server room AC installation
  • Energy efficient systems
  • IP monitoring & environmental sensors
  • Redundant failover configuration
  • Compliance & handover documentation

Our solution

  1. 1

    We replaced the outdated system with a pair of high efficiency, inverter driven AC units, sized correctly to meet the room's exact heat load.

  2. 2

    The new system uses modern, low GWP refrigerant (R32), ensuring full compliance with F-Gas regulations and reducing environmental impact.

  3. 3

    A redundant N+1 configuration provides automatic failover should one unit fail, ensuring continuous cooling and 99.9% uptime.

  4. 4

    We installed IP connected environmental sensors monitoring temperature, humidity and system status 24/7, with real-time alerts via email and SMS.

  5. 5

    The installation was fully tested, commissioned and documented. All data is logged and accessible via a secure online portal for complete visibility.
