Why is fridge temperature monitoring important?

Given that the majority of fridges and chillers have a temperature display, it’s fair to question why a secondary independent temperature check is necessary. The answer is simply that temperature displays show the temperature a fridge is set to, rather than the temperature it is actually reading. As any refrigeration or cooling unit is at risk of malfunction or breakdown, it’s important that an independent temperature check is carried out regularly to ensure the fridge temperature is safe, especially if the products are high-risk and/or perishable.
