McKenney’s installed multiple

replacement air cooling units

at a large Atlanta data center

that remained operational during the course

of the project.

THE CHALLENGE

McKenney’s had to install one new air cooling

unit per day at a data center that handles

global accounts and has no tolerance for

downtime. Detailed provisions were necessary

to shut down and remove old units—and

install new ones—without disrupting cooling

in the massive server room.

THE SOLUTION

The McKenney’s team carefully planned eachstep, working long hours to stage installation

in sequence so operating units would remain

online while each one was being replaced.

The structure of the raised floors were modi-

fied to supported the unit transfers; removing

each old unit and stabilizing the floor for th

next new unit. McKenney’s also rerouted th

ductwork without shutting down the server

THE RESULTS

 All units were operational on schedule withno data center downtime. For another more

complicated data center—where space

is even more restricted—the customer has

requested that the same McKenney’s team

perform the work.
