Why care homes use this

HSE ACOP L8 requires care home operators to monitor and record hot and cold water temperatures at defined frequencies. Manual dip testing is time-consuming and records can be lost or falsified. Tinytag data loggers provide a tamper-evident electronic record that can be produced at CQC inspection as evidence of a compliant monitoring programme. HSG 274 Part 2 recommends electronic monitoring for calorifier and distribution temperatures.

Key specification

Temperature range -40°C to +85°C; accuracy ±0.35°C; logging interval user-defined (1 second to 18 hours); IP68 waterproof; USB download; battery life up to 5 years; UKAS calibration certificate available.
