cKenney’s installed a 900-ton
air-cooled chilled water plant
and associated distribution
system for a new 1.5MW data center in
Alpharetta, Georgia.
The Challenge
Turning an abandoned warehouse into a
20,000-square-foot data center was no sim-
ple task given the aggressive schedule. The
McKenney’s team had to contend with limited
space under the raised floor throughout the
facility. Careful planning and coordination
was essential to avoid losing capacity from
reduced airflow to the computer room air
handler (CRAH) units.
The Solution
Leveraging BIM capabilities, the team coordi-
nated mechanical and electrical services to
maximize heat rejection capacity at the serv-
ers. McKenney’s prefabricated most of the
chilled water plant, connections to the major
pieces of equipment and distribution piping.
Concurrent operation ensured the piping sys-
tems were installed as soon as the structure
was ready, minimizing field installation time to
meet the compressed construction schedule.
The Results
A seamless start-up, and commissioning
accelerated the turnover of the Peak 10 data
center to the owner.
