Karl is correct. I have had bad hardware straight from the factory too. I have also had data centers that would quickly ruin equipment because of power and grounding problems. If you have performance problems in a variety of devices or simultaneous failures across multiple platforms I would check out the electrical environment. Regardless, a good UPS and a solid grounding system can't hurt.
Also, regarding your initial question, do you have reason to suspect that the data center temperature is a factor? Temperature is obviously very important.
