How much does server room cooling cost in Christchurch?
In Christchurch, guide prices run from about £4,095 to £15,550 per room (duty/standby pair), plus VAT. A typical job (small comms room, 2–5 kW IT load, N+1 pair) usually comes to £4,095–£9,295 plus VAT. Your exact price is fixed in writing once we have surveyed.
Server room cooling is dedicated air conditioning that removes the heat produced by IT equipment around the clock, independently of the office system.

Things to check in Christchurch
Resilience
A single unit is a single point of failure. N+1 means one unit can fail without the room overheating.
Leased premises
If your Christchurch premises are leased, the landlord's written consent is usually needed for external units, wall penetrations and roof access. We provide drawings and data sheets for the request.
Run 24/7
Comfort units are not designed for continuous year-round use. We select equipment rated for it.
Working hours
Most Christchurch businesses prefer noisy work outside trading hours. Early starts, evenings and weekends can be arranged and are priced up front.
Premises we work in around Christchurch
- Healthcare and dental: clean, quiet cooling for surgeries, clinics, dental practices and care settings.

- Offices: zoned cooling and heating for open-plan floors, meeting rooms and comms rooms.

Compliance in England: refrigerant work falls under GB F-gas rules, and buildings with more than 12 kW of air conditioning in total need a periodic energy inspection (often called TM44).

Do you also cover Bournemouth, New Milton and Poole?
Yes. Alongside Christchurch, we also cover Bournemouth, New Milton and Poole. Each has its own page with local guide prices.
Which postcodes do you cover in Christchurch?
All of them, including BH23, GL16 and PE14. Give us your postcode when you enquire and we will confirm the visit details.
Why not use the office air conditioning?
Office systems switch off out of hours and are sized for people, not equipment that runs 24/7. A dedicated system is more reliable and cheaper to run.
What temperature should a server room be?
ASHRAE guidance recommends equipment inlet air of about 18–27°C. Many small rooms are set at around 21–24°C to leave headroom if a unit fails.
