Wall-mounted air conditioners are the most frequently used aircon units used in server rooms. Wall units are used for many reasons in server rooms. Firstly, you can direct the cold air directly at the server so they are kept as cool as possible. There are also specific wall-mounted air conditioning models that are purpose-built to deal with the intense, constant cooling that a server room requires.
We always avoid cheap models that are designed for home/office use that will offer very little longevity and will usually go ‘kaput’ when you need them most!
Under-Ceiling Units for Server Rooms
The only other solution we recommend for server rooms is under-ceiling air conditioners. These units are used when a higher-powered option than a wall-mounted unit is needed. This extra power (up to 14kW) can handle up to 6 additional servers or even a larger room.
Both under-ceiling and wall-mounted units should be placed away from electronic equipment as there is a risk of leaking if they are not regularly maintained. The Air Conditioning Company are confident that our installation will last the test of time which is why we offer a 5-year warranty on all our server room installations.
