Data Centre Cleaning Services

Clean Group offers the following cleaning solutions to businesses such as medical, school and IT institutions that have data centres. These cleaning solutions provided by Medical Cleaners Brisbane and School Cleaners Brisbane are proven to be effective and are absolutely in line with the strict and sensitive requirements that a data centre may have.

Floor Cleaning

Data Center floors are designed to reduce or irradicate static electrical charge by creating a conductive path into the ground. If the floor is dusty and dirty, it significantly reduces the floor’s ability to protect your equipment from static.

Improper use of chemicals and equipment can also damage the surfaces of the floor. The inappropriate use of cleaning chemicals can damage the protective coating of the floor that shields your equipment from the unwanted ground and static. Clean Group knows the right procedure in protecting your floor against chipping and delamination.

Hardware Cleaning

A controlled environment has a high cleaning requirement that will protect its exterior against dust and contaminants. All of our cleaners are certified and trained in properly handling chemicals used in cleaning this type of facility.

Underfloor Plenum Cleaning

The plenum gives the filtered air to the equipment being housed inside the data centre. Most of the computer rooms have raised floorings. The space in between is where you can see the Plenum. This works like a small air vent underneath the expensive computer boards. Like all other propellers, plenum may suck up the accumulated dust and dirt up the mainboard panel. This can damage the equipment. Apart from that, this can clog the circuits that can lead to fire and severe health hazards.
