I feel a room with good air conditioning would help with cooling smaller size computers.

It would need to be a large unit with good venting as you couldn't have any humidity.

I think a dehumidifier can help with reducing humidity from damaging computer parts.

That takes a lot of management though and some places might not keep up with the upkeep.

I heard there are dehumidifying household products like Damprid which absorb moisture from the air, and does not require electricity. But, you need to occasionally pour out the water, and add a new package of Damprid to the container.

Eventually you would have to disassemble it and clean it out of any growing mildew which is a pain.

I feel cleaning dehumidifiers of dust can also be a pain.

I think there are dehumidifiers which use Silica crystals which absorb water, but you occasionally need to heat up the crystals to remove the water when the crystals get too wet.
