BIG DATA DAMAGEThe Texas Data Center Watchdog

Ruined Property Value

When the Fans Never Stop

The walls of cooling fans on a data center or crypto mine can produce constant, low-frequency noise that carries for blocks — rattling windows, ruining sleep, and driving down the value of every home nearby. Texas law protects a landowner's right to the 'quiet enjoyment' of their property.

What's really going on

Constant low-frequency noise

Industrial cooling fans can run 24/7 at volumes that interfere with sleep and the normal use of a home — a classic basis for a private nuisance claim.

Diminution of property value

When a facility makes neighboring homes harder to sell — or only sellable at a steep loss — that lost value is a concrete, measurable financial injury.

Public & private nuisance

Texas common law recognizes claims when someone substantially and unreasonably interferes with the use and enjoyment of your land.
