Data Center Cooling: Finding HVAC Contractors for Critical Facilities

/ Leave a Comment / Cooling & HVAC /

Why Data Center Cooling Is Different from Standard Commercial HVAC Cooling accounts for roughly 40% of a data center’s total energy consumption — and unlike any other building type, it cannot be interrupted, throttled, or deferred. While a commercial office building can tolerate elevated temperatures for hours without consequence, a data center experiencing a cooling
