Hot aisle containment has the advantage that the room as whole is at a comfortable temperature while cold aisle containment is easier to retro-fit. In principle there is no difference between the two systems in their potential for saving energy, although in practice, hot aisle containment can be run hotter than a cold aisle containment which would improve its performance. In existing data centres the type of air handling plant and the air distribution system will be deciding factors as to which solution is adopted. For example, APC in-row cooling is ideal for an enclosed hot aisle whilst an under-floor supply with room return to CRAC units would be better suited to cold aisle containment.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.16&#8243; text_font=&#8221;Soleil Regular||||||||&#8221; text_text_color=&#8221;#4A4A4A&#8221; text_line_height=&#8221;20px&#8221; header_font_size=&#8221;35px&#8221; header_3_font=&#8221;Soleil Bold|700||on|||||&#8221; header_3_text_color=&#8221;#0C435E&#8221; header_3_font_size=&#8221;30px&#8221; header_3_line_height=&#8221;35px&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;]<\/p>\n<h3>Why Choose Future-tech?<\/h3>\n<p><span>At Future-tech we have designed and installed a broad range of aisle containment solutions and the use of hot and cold aisle containment is standard practice for all our new data centres.
