Compute North provides data colocation facilities for crypto-currency mining operations. As a result, they have large buildings with lots of computers that produce lots of heat. However, if that heat isn't removed from the space, the computers overheat and can stop functioning or even break. The data center needed to find a way to exhaust the how air while still keeping expenses low for their customers.

That's what led them to natural ventilation. The money saved by cooling the building without adding electrical or maintenance costs is significant.

Moffitt proposed three (3) 80' low-profile natural ventilators. Each ventilator was installed down slope, positioned over the server racks' hot air exhaust. This provides a natural evacuation point for the built-up heat in the building. Now, instead of the hot air accumulated in what is supposed to be the cold aisle, it can exhaust out through the roof.

Results for Data Colocation Ventilation

The installation team tackled challenges as they came and completed the job on schedule. In the end, Compute North was very satisfied with the final results.

In conclusion, the recent boom in data centers has made Moffitt the "go-to" for data colocation ventilation. Our team has the experience necessary to keep the cold aisle cold, and the hot aisle hot. Plus, with our advanced CFD modeling for ventilation, you can see how the new system will operate before you purchase any equipment. Contact the Moffitt team today to learn more.
