Case study
Server Room AC Installation
Resilient server room cooling with redundant failover and environmental monitoring, delivering reported uptime of 99.9%.

- 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
We replaced the outdated system with a pair of high efficiency, inverter driven AC units, sized correctly to meet the room's exact heat load.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
The new system uses modern, low GWP refrigerant (R32), ensuring full compliance with F-Gas regulations and reducing environmental impact.
- 3
A redundant N+1 configuration provides automatic failover should one unit fail, ensuring continuous cooling and 99.9% uptime.
- 4
We installed IP connected environmental sensors monitoring temperature, humidity and system status 24/7, with real-time alerts via email and SMS.
- 5
The installation was fully tested, commissioned and documented. All data is logged and accessible via a secure online portal for complete visibility.
