Air conditioning units with high horse power will provide better cooling effect as it maintains the circulation over and below the elevated floor to finish the cycle.

The under-floor wire system will need different forms and requirements from shielded types, dual-coaxial type, mono-coaxial, twisted pair type, and liquid tight. The wirings are to be arranged properly especially for power and communication wirings above the flooring. Using the well-known teflon-sheathed wires is effective but may cost you some money.

Proper arrangement of the wires and cables underneath the elevated floor should be done with caution. If overlooked, faulty wiring connections will surely cause fire. To avoid fires and accidents, it is strongly suggested to install smoke detectors or fire detection system. Some engineers install lockout systems, when the smoke detector alarms, it immediately limits the scattering of the smoke and fire as the air handlers automatically shut down.

Other safety guidelines must be taken down such as maintaining fire extinguishers in each office corner. It is also good to have the employees attend to seminars that will inform and can show effective fire drills and fire preventive measures.
