CoolIT Systems

Overview

CoolIT supplies the plumbing of liquid-cooled data centres: liquid-to-liquid and liquid-to-air coolant distribution units, modular piping and valves that carry coolant from the CDU to the racks, and coldplates fitted to server platforms from major OEMs. The company also runs a professional services team that designs, deploys and maintains liquid-cooled systems, which is the part buyers usually underestimate. As of the current site, CoolIT is part of Ecolab, and the combined offer pairs cooling hardware with chemistry, monitoring and on-site service. Product pages are structured by catalogue rather than by price, and configurations are quoted through sales or an OEM partner.

Editorial verdict

The catalogue is the strong point: CDUs in both liquid-to-liquid and liquid-to-air form, the piping that connects them, and coldplates already fitted by OEMs, so a buyer can scope a design without stitching three vendors together. Professional services matter more than the hardware sheet, because most liquid retrofits fail on facility interfaces rather than on coldplates. Being part of Ecolab adds chemistry and water treatment to the offer, useful for operators who already have a water treatment contract and awkward for those who do not want one vendor across cooling and chemistry. Prices are quoted per configuration, so compare on delivered kW and service scope.
