 +===== Summary Bullets =====
 +
 +⦁ Replace computer room air conditioning units (CRAC, Liebert DSE DA085)\\
 +⦁ Replace rooftop condensing units\\
 +⦁ Install new economizers and pump packages\\
 +⦁ Install new drop ceiling and lighting (LED) with dim switch\\
 +⦁ R-410A refrigerant, "free cooling" with ambient air 45 degrees or less (about 3,578 hours/yr or ~40% )\\
 +⦁ Reduce  square footage for rack servers (L-Room normal room temperature), from 28x17 to 22x11 tiles, or ~50%\\
 +⦁ Install hot and cold isle containment system (vinyl curtains)\\
 +⦁ Abandon sub floor cold air delivery (push cold air above floor)\\
 +⦁ Total load of approx 88 Kw (~20% growth, 45 Kw for ITS, 25 Kw for HPCC)\\
 +⦁ Save approx 260,000 Kwh/yr of electricity (estimated at $35,000 /yr in savings)\\
 +⦁ ROI of 7-8 years\\
 +
 +[[https://www.vertiv.com/en-us/support/tools-applications/free-cooling-economizer-calculator/|Vertiv Free Cooling Calculator]] 80 degree return air (conservative) with 70% load rates full free cooling hours are at 44% for Bridgeport and 48% for Hartford. So the expected 40% lsted aboveis low water mark as that percentage goes up if return air gets hotter. At 85 degree it yields between 53-56%.
