Southland Industries
Hear why the principal at Southland Industries trusts Data Aire to deliver a reliable solution.
- What was important when Southland was choosing a vendor?
- How was Data Aire responsive to Southland’s requirements?
Customized Cooling
“While reliability is certainly important, so is the ability to customize. A lot of other manufacturer’s don’t offer the same flexibility as Data Aire.”
“Data Aire keeps current with new trends and develops new technology to ensure that their products are the best. What’s great is when you need a deviation from their standard product, they are willing to us in anyway possible.”
As principal engineer at Southland Industries for the past 15 years, Corey Lehman, P.E. has worked on a number of high profile – and demanding – projects. Among them: the Pentagon renovation, as well as work at Walter Reed Hospital. Corey naturally relies on only the best suppliers. And for him, that includes Data Aire.
On Time, On Budget
“Data Aire is very fast in their delivery times andarriving on schedule. We started a recent project with a different manufacturer and then found that their cost was high in comparison to Data Aire.”
“With Data Aire we had the added benefits of the agility of a smaller company to customize and provide faster deadlines. Maybe those big guys can’t do it because they’re just a big machine and not as flexible.”
Precision Cooling Must Be Perfect 24/7
“Failure is not an option. A precision cooling system in a data center has to be run perfectly 24/7. Clients don’t want their servers shutting down because that means angry customers. In terms of reliability I would say that Data Aire is extremely dependable and the best option.”
“Data Aire provides fast responses and quick turnarounds.”
