All units are located in the within the raised floor area and are equipped with IR humidifiers and dehumidification systems. The units maintain an average space temperature of 68°F at 50% relative humidity
Air filtration is accomplished by the use of both pre-filters and high efficiency air filters. 50% of the environmental control units are powered from one power source while the other 50% are powered form the facility’s secondary power source
