Cut water use and costs—while protecting cooling reliability and uptime.

Water is becoming one of the most critical resources in data-center operations. Rising cooling demands, climate risks, and regulatory expectations make it essential to optimize every drop. In this guide, you’ll discover actionable ways to improve water efficiency, reduce OpEx, and enhance cooling reliability across any facility—hyperscale, colocation, or enterprise.

What’s inside the guide

  • Benchmarking WUE: establish baselines for hybrid cooling environments

  • Quick wins: controls tuning, blowdown optimization, chemistry & filtration tweaks

  • Medium moves: reclaim/RO integration, drift eliminators, load-matched sequencing

  • Strategic shifts: alternative water sources, heat reuse, closed-loop designs

  • Governance & reporting: auditable metrics for ESG and regulatory needs
