24 hour airco is pretty destructive on the energy bill for these datacenters apparently, but looking at the outside temperature, it might not be needed all the time.
No matter what the temperature outside, without the aircon we have about a half hour before we have to start shutting kit down. Any longer than that and the temperature gets high enough to start causing damage to disks and other components.
