Pre-Study Checklist

Define temperature specification limits (e.g., 2-8°C, 15-25°C)
Document facility layout with precise dimensions
Identify HVAC system configuration and airflow patterns
Note door locations and expected traffic patterns
Identify potential hot spots (heat sources, lighting, equipment)
Identify potential cold spots (near refrigeration units, walls)
Calibrate all data loggers (NIST-traceable ≤ ±0.5°C)
Prepare logger placement diagram with rationale
