This fridge and freezer temperature log sheet empowers you to maintain precise temperature records for food safety compliance. Daily monitoring and documentation are critical for preventing bacterial growth and foodborne illness. The US FDA recommends maintaining refrigerator temperatures at or below 40°F (4°C) and freezers at 0°F (-18°C). 

We created this template to help you track temperature readings, document any deviations, and take immediate corrective actions when needed. For food service operations, this log sheet eliminates the guesswork of whether your cold storage units are functioning properly, providing peace of mind and documentation during health inspections.
