Re: Cool

Cooling just takes power, which isn't much of a problem. The real issue in that locale (in my experience) is dust. You would think that filtration would be equally simple, and the air doesn't obviously appear loaded with particulates, but in the facilities I've seen the mechanical (fans etc) failure rate is off the scale (literally: we had to expand the graph axis in the monitoring system).
