My equipment lives in my family room. I’m in SC and run three fully populated Dell r720XD’s 24/7. It keeps the house warm in winter, but heats it up more during the summer (it sucks!). I haven’t found a solution to exhausting the heat without creating a negative pressure in the house causing outside heat to be pulled in, unfortunately.
Enclose it, route outside air in and back out?
Humidity in the South hits 100% way too often, unfortunately. I’d imagine that would not be great for them.
Fair enough. I dunno if you’re actually trying to solve the problem or not, but a mini split or a proper dual hose portable air conditioner are probably your best bets, neither of them generate positive or negative pressure in the conditioned space. All depends on how much energy costs are a factor to you.
