The temperature on the Coldin display refrigerator was turned down and the unit temperature moved to between 39F - 40F.
For the next week, October 26th - October 30th, 2015, please record the several temperatures of PHF/TCS food inside the Coldin display refrigerator (left) and the time the temperatures were taken. Take the temperatures of the various PHF/TCS food items at least 3 times daily. A blank temperature log was left with the CFM. If the temperature of the PHF/TCS food is not holding at 41F or below please immediately remove the PHF/TCS food at have the unit repaired. On Friday October 30, 2015 please email me the temperature log.
