Accurately verify that the dish machine's final rinse water temperature is reaching the 180°F required by the NSF/ANSI 3 Standard. Easy to use - simply adhere to the external rinse water pipe.

Dishwashers that use heat to sanitize the dishware require a rinse temperature of at least 180°F to properly sanitize. This high temperature rinse is what ultimately brings the surface temperature of the dishware to the FDA required 160°F.

Paper Thermometer's Dishwasher Rinse Temp Thermolabel temp strip finally offers a way to accurately test rinse water temperature using an irreversible registering temperature indicator.

Instructions for Use

Locate the rinse water pipe. It is typically a vertical pipe on the right side of the machine towards the rear.
Remove temperature label from sheet.
Apply to rinse water pipe carefully with the non-adhesive tab extended off pipe. The pipe will still be hot. Protect hands when applying to avoid burns.
Run the machine's cycle as normal.
