Did you know that a loss of power, no matter what the cause,
could jeopardize the safety of your food? After
a power interruption, how do you know if your freezer has
defrosted enough
to cause dangerous damage to
your food?
The contents of the average freezer
carry a lot
of value so they’re worth protecting
– but how
can you be sure the food’s safe to
eat if you
don’t know how high and for how
long the freezer’s temperature rose?

DEFROSTWATCH™-
Innovative Freezer Monitor
Keep your family safe
If the power to your freezer’s been off
for any reason, the food may look fine,
but if it’s been defrosted and then
refrozen, it could pose a serious risk to
you and your family. Do you take a
chance and risk illness, or throw out the
contents of your freezer, wasting valuable
food? Now there’s DefrostWatch™
giving you the information needed to
decide. DefrostWatch™ sits in the freezer
and tells you whether the temperature has risen
too high and for how long.
*No batteries required
In-step with Government guidelines
The US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) believes you should know the proper food safety precautions to take in the event of power interruptions. The FDA points out that perishable food that is not kept adequately frozen may cause illness if eaten, even when it is thoroughly cooked. Its advice is “if, at any point, the food was above 40 °F for two hours or more — discard it.” DefrostWatch™ will confirm whether your frozen food is in the danger zone.
