• What is the difference between water-cooled chillers and air-chilled coolers?

  Cooling systems are needed to cool servers in order to keep them running reliably, efficiently, and safely. At Doteasy, we employ water-chilled coolers to maintain the safety of our servers through energy-efficient means. Water-chilled coolers rely on the high heat capacity of water to facilitate chilling of refrigerant. Cooling occurs when chilled refrigerant is passed through a heat exchanger.

  Water-chilled coolers are less dependent on ambient environmental air temperatures, and less energy is needed to achieve and maintain the desired temperature. This is in contrast to air-chilled coolers, where more energy is needed to pump air through a heat exchanger in order to reach the desired temperatures.
