Temperature log
A week per page. Write your own target for each unit in the target column first: a reading without a target cannot be judged.
How to use it
- 01Fill in the unit names and your target for each one, once.
- 02Photocopy the page. That is your log book for the year.
- 03Take the reading at the same two points every day, and initial it.
- 04Each Monday, read last week's page before ordering. A drifting unit shows up as a trend, not a single number.

- Two readings a day is the usual pattern: one at open, one at close.
- A reading outside your target needs a written note of what was done about it, on the same line or the back of the sheet.
- Write temperatures with a unit and a sign, for example -18°C.
