My neighbor's shop has PCs that keep overheating. What can I do?
The small repair shop down the street has three desktop computers for customer use. They are in a back room with poor air flow and get very hot. I checked and the fans are full of dust, but cleaning them only helps for a short time. Has anyone seen this happen often? I want to give them a hand with a better fix that won't cost much.

Actually, cleaning is just a band-aid if the room itself has bad airflow.

That band-aid idea hits home. See it all the time with home stuff. People dust every day but never fix the drafty window. @beth_webb76 has the right idea with airflow, but it's deeper. Like, my last place had a closet that always smelled musty. No amount of cleaning helped until we checked the vent.

Yeah bad airflow is the worst. I started cracking windows more often and running a fan on low, made a huge difference with stuffy rooms.
