Contamination on and in IT equipment in Data Centres and Computer Rooms will cause equipment to retain heat and cause unwanted downtime if not maintained. In addition, power requirements will increase to keep the equipment cooler: Power and Cooling are key issues within the Data Centre environment.

Our complete Data Centre Cleaning service includes an extensive clean of the subfloor void, floor surface buffing and the equipment surface to provide a thorough preventive maintenance program for your Data Centre to ensure ISO 14644-1 Machine Room standards are met.

If your Data Centre has never been under a preventive maintenance program which includes cleaning, then an initial service site preparation may need to be performed. This will include a clean of the subfloor void, floor and equipment surfaces and the pedestal and stringer substructure to ensure that your Data Centre is as dust and contamination free as possible.

The equipment surfaces are cleaned using takcloths with highly interwoven fibres and vacuumed where applicable using three stage HEPA-filtered vacuums. In addition, the surface of the floor panels is cleaned using specialised anti-static equipment and solutions.

Most hardware manufacturers such as Cisco, IBM and HP recommend the subfloor void is cleaned twice per annum by a professional Data Centre cleaning company, especially if air flow is being directed through the floor void.

We also provide Disaster Recovery Cleaning Services with a 24 hour turnaround if needed, for refrigeration unit leaks, water leaks, flooding, fire, smoke or any other emergencies. Call us on our out of hours emergency line: 0845 459 0278. We can also help with specialist cleaning of PC's with potential swine flu contamination. 

FACT: Hardware warranties can be deemed void if not kept in an environment maintained to ISO Standards.
