Deep impact cleaning of sensitive data

see next page for more detail.
5. COMPUTER AND DATA ROOM CLEANING
Cleaning within a computer room or Data center plays an important role in maintaining a
healthy working environment not only for the employees but also for the equipment. Cleaning of
the equipment ensures that the machinery runs at its peak performance and decreases the
chances of unwanted downtime.
In order to keep the equipment working at peak performance there are certain cleaning services
and cleaning techniques used to maintain this performance of the data and computer equipment.
Under floor Plenum Cleaning
A computer room or data center has a
plenum that runs below the raised floor.
It is vital to keep this area clean and dust
free in order to ensure the continuous
cool and dust free air flow to the sensitive
equipment. Should this dust be left or a
build up of dust accumulates the air flow
will carry this up to the equipment
causing disruptions or cause the hardware
to work harder to keep cool. It is vital to
maintain this cleaning to help protect
your equipment.
A cleaning team depending on the size of
the data room is split and each starts at
opposite ends and meets in the middle.
One row of tiles is cleaned at a time. Each
tile is lifted with tile lifters in order to
ensure the tiles are not damaged. Due to
the limited amount of space under floor
the Hepa Filtered Vacuum cleaners are
used to clean the pipes under the tiled
floor. Special extension pipes are attached
to these Vacuums in order to reach all
areas under floor. When vacuuming is
taking place special care is taken with the
Buzz Bars and any other potential threat
to the client’s property and one another’s
safety.
Once the under floor is cleaned and dust
free the tiles are wiped down and replaced
in the same position as removed.
Staff are required to wear the correct
Protective clothing. This includes safety
boots, gloves and dust masks (dependent
on each site). This ensures the safety and
well being of the cleaning staff.
Above Floor Cleaning
Data and computer cleaning uses
techniques to remove dust and dirt
from the environment. Many of the
data centers are a live environment
and therefore we ensure that NO
water is taken into the data centers.
Our experienced staff use equipment
in good working condition specific to
the sensitive computer environment.
Environmental friendly cleaning
chemicals are used with Lint free
cloths. A new enzyme based wipe is
used to wipe down all surfaces.
Surface cleaning includes air ducting,
access flooring, substructure frames,
variation of metal pipes and cable
cages/ conduits.
The enzyme wipe is used to kill any
form of harmful microbe bacteria
present in the data center. It is
important to ensure the floor tiles
are kept clean to ensure the
reduction of static on the floor.
Hepa Filter Vacuum cleaners are
used to remove any dust particles
lying on the surface of the tiled
floors.
