Server rooms need to stay between 20 and 23 degrees, with humidity below 50%. Stray outside those limits and equipment can slow down, go offline or lose data.
Airmac Air Conditioning designs server room air conditioning that works best when it is planned before the racking goes in, because the layout decides everything after it. Hot and cold aisle planning done alongside the IT team stops warm exhaust air being drawn straight back into the intake side.
Redundancy is the second decision. Duty and standby units cover each other so a single failure does not take the room with it. High temperature alarms raise the flag while there is still time to act, and fire suppression planning sits in the same conversation.
An emergency action plan matters as much as the hardware. Knowing who gets called at 2am, and in what order, is what turns a fault into an inconvenience.
Plan the room around the equipment it will hold next year, not around the racks standing in it today.
