Leakage of cold air in the wrong places will reduce the effective cooling capacity of the system. Increasing cooling capacity to compensate is expensive and wasteful of energy.

A better solution is to reclaim lost cooling capacity by sealing unmanaged openings that are wasting cold air. This will ensure air is circulated to where it is needed via correctly positioned grille floor tiles.

Typically these opening are found where cable access is required, below cabinets.

The installation of specially designed raised floor brush grommets will help seal the floor and prevent leakage of air where cables are routed into equipment cabinets.
Koldlok Brush Seal Systems

The incorporation of floor sealing systems will help:

• Increase existing cooling unit capacity
• Reduce the need to purchase additional cooling units
• Improve equipment reliability and extend equipment life
• Increase static pressure under the raised floor and improve cool air delivery through perforated tiles and floor grates
• Facilitate cold aisle/hot aisle best practices.
