Best Practices

Implement Best Practices–the First and Simplest Step in Improving Data Center Airflow

The segregation of cold and hot air inside the cabinet, identified as a data center best practice by industry organizations, is the first step in achieving energy efficiency. Segregation eliminates recirculation and bypass air, allowing rack mount equipment to receive as much conditioned air as possible. Implement best practices by filling and sealing open areas in and around the cabinet with accessories from Great Lakes.
