Dust accumulation is common in facilities utilizing HVAC economizers, or those that require consistent employee foot traffic. Dust can can decrease server heat efficiency or block subfloor airflow, risking higher HVAC costs and downtime. Specialized server and subfloor vacuuming is a cost effective method to avoid downtime, elongate equipment lifetime, and maximize HVAC system efficiency.

Data centers rely on high-efficiency particle air (HEPA) filters to maintain ISO 8 data center standards. Modern HVAC systems and Air Handling Units (AHUs) supporting even smaller data centers requires 100s of HEPA filters, and even more pre-filters. Consistent filter maintenance and attention to these larger systems are essential to modern data center operations.

Deep Facility Cleans across all equipment groups (such as backup diesel gensets, uninterruptible power systems (UPS), power distribution units (PDUs), etc.) are periodically necessary to support industry operational standards. Post-construction data centers cleans are also essential in establishing baseline functionality.

Compounding the impact of particulate matter on equipment efficiency, contaminants like sulfur can degrade computing components and create significant risk for data center operations. Gaseous Contaminant Testing can enhance active facility safe-guards to monitor paniculate accumulation prevent system outages.
