RE: Node zero in the loft

Hi David

You need to think SERIOUSLY about the temperature duing the summer. It can
get extremely hot up there. I have seen american houses where they have
large fans to blow air through the loft to keep it cool.

It seems to be a good idea, there is no way to keep a bedroom cool if the
temperature of the ceiling is reaching 90 to 100F or higher during the day
because of the sun beating down on the roof.

One thing confuses me though.....you say you have plenty of space in the
loft. Mine is so full of junk^H^H^H^H stuff that may be useful one day that
I have trouble even getting up there !!!

Hi all,

About the only place I can find to fit in a node zero for a network
switch, patch bay, controller, whatever etc. in my new house is in the
loft.  I know a few people on the list have PC's and other stuff up in
their lofts, and I was wondering if this is a good place for it.

It seems to be nice and cool (at least it is now, not sure about in the
summer :-) and plenty of room, but it's also a bit dusty.  Has anyone
had any problems with dust, or are there ways to prevent it clogging up
the system, like extra filters or a special case?
