computers generate their own heat? (and too much of it)
Since moving my servers in, I have never had to use my central heating. Ever.
Granted, this is "sunny So Cal" but we've been getting below freezing at
night this last week, and the servers are saving money on the gas bill.
After my wife and I got married we lived in an apartment for 8 years.
During that time we turned on the heat maybe a half dozen times, and quite
frequently would have to open up and let cold air in when it was freezing
out.
Now that we own a house, and the computers are in the garage we're using the
heat a lot. I was looking at the computers being out there as a way to help
keep the temperature a bit warmer, but with this cold spell, it isn't
working.
