I have a couple of servers, screen & UPS in an office that gets quite hot. I 
have asked to have some form of air-conditioning installed, but the air-
conditioning company have asked me how much heat my computers generate so they 
know what size air-conditioner to install.
I am happy to give maximum figures. eg. The server has a 400 watt power 
supply, so I'll give them figures that assume it's under full load.
