The decommissioning of the Old Dominion facility in Colorado was executed as a comprehensive, multi-phase project focused on the safe removal, recycling, and compliance documentation of all power, cooling, and electrical infrastructure. Trash Masters LLC’s role was to provide a full-service, environmentally responsible dismantling and removal process — covering generators, UPS systems, CRAC units, chillers, PDUs, racks, and fire suppression equipment.

  • Disconnection and cutting of electrical feeds near flush with concrete pad, capped with weather-tight PVC fittings.
  • All fuel drained, electrical conduits disconnected, and crane rigging coordinated for transport.
  • Filing of paperwork with the State of Denver and coordination with the local Fire Marshall for AST closure.
  • Concrete pad left in place (integrated with adjacent pad).

2. Uninterruptible Power Supplies (UPS)

  • Removal of two Eaton 9395-275 kVA UPS systems with battery cabinets.
  • Complete disconnection from ATS and PDUs, safe electrical termination, and forklift removal.
  • Housekeeping pads left in place per client request.

3. Battery Removal and Recycling

  • Removal of 160 SLA CSB HR/HRL-Series batteries (non-hazardous).
  • Electrical disconnection, palletization, and forklift removal.
  • Certified recycling documentation provided upon request.

Phase 2: Cooling Systems Decommission

1. Computer Room Air Conditioning (CRAC) Units

  • Removal of (2) Opticool RPW floor units, (4) Opticool ceiling-mounted units (R-134A), and (1) MovinCool Classic Plus 14 portable unit.
  • All refrigerant lines cut near flush with pads and sealed with PVC caps.
  • Masonry and drywall repairs performed where refrigerant lines were removed.
  • Draining of refrigerants, conduit disconnection, and removal of piping.
  • Nortec humidifiers excluded from scope.

2. Chillers

  • Removal of two Carrier 30RAP0606DAG chillers (410A refrigerant).
  • All refrigerant and water drained; electrical and piping systems disconnected.
  • Concrete pad demo excluded but can be added if directed.
  • Pads left intact and capped weather-tight.

Phase 3: Electrical & Rack Infrastructure

1. Power Distribution and Electrical Equipment

  • Removal of (2) Eaton B PDUs, (4) Starline Bus Ducts, (2) GE SB UOUT1-2 panels, (2) GE PB MECHA.B panels, (2) GE SB MDP panels, and (1) ATS section.
  • All feeds cut near flush at pad level and capped with weather-tight PVC fittings.
  • Electrical disconnections performed by licensed Colorado electricians.
  • Concrete pads left in place unless otherwise directed.
  • Two electrical troughs not in scope.

2. Server Rack Removal

  • Removal of 24 Opticool door racks with Eaton enclosures.
  • Network and power cabling disconnected; racks loaded for shipment or recycling.

Phase 4: Fire Suppression & Safety Systems

1. Fire Suppression (FM-200 System)

  • Removal of three Fike FM-200 cylinders (928 lbs total) and all associated piping and nozzles.
  • Fire alarm system reprogrammed to remove dependency on gas suppression.
  • Sprinkler system modifications excluded.

2. VESDA System

  • Removal of one dual-panel VESDA system including electrical disconnect and alarm reprogramming.
  • No modification to other smoke detection devices.

Phase 5: Final Area Cleanout

Rooms and Spaces

  • Full cleaning and removal of debris from MDF/Electrical/Cooling/Server Room complex.
  • Outdoor equipment yard cleaned (housing ATS, chillers, and generator).
  • All spaces broom-swept and left clean.

Key Outcomes

  • Complete mechanical and electrical decommission of power and cooling systems.
  • Certified recycling and environmental documentation for batteries and refrigerants.
  • Coordination with local Fire Marshall and state agencies for AST closure.
  • Site left safe, clean, and ready for landlord inspection or redevelopment.
