  • Unmissable Alerts: The combination of piercing sound and  bright flashing lights is truly foolproof.
  • System Dependent: To unlock its full potential, you need existing Comark WiFi data loggers.

Case Study: Real Business, Real Results

The Rutland Pie Co. in Oakham needed a more robust way to monitor their walk-in chiller and  meat fridges overnight. Manual checks were time-consuming and  left room for error, posing a risk to their high-quality stock.

"We used to worry constantly about equipment failure after hours. The Comark system gives us a loud, clear alert the second a temperature strays. It's let us sleep easier at night, knowing our stock is protected."

Michael Davies – Owner

The bakery has eliminated all stock loss due to fridge temperature fluctuations since installation, protecting their bottom line.

Installation and  Maintenance Guide

Setting It Up

  • Find a central location where the alarm will be easily seen and  heard by staff.
  • Use the included wall bracket and  screws for the most secure fit, or the sticky pad for a non-permanent option.
  • Plug the unit into a reliable mains socket to ensure it's always powered.
  • Follow the simple instructions to connect the unit to your kitchen's WiFi network and  sync it with your Comark data loggers.

Keeping It Going

  • Wipe the plastic casing with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using harsh sprays or abrasive cleaners.
  • Perform a weekly test of the alarm function to ensure it's working correctly.
  • Check that the vents on the unit are clear of dust or kitchen grease to prevent overheating.
  • Ensure the mains plug is secure and  the battery backup is functional, especially after a power outage.

Buying Guide: Choosing the Right Kitchen Timer

Need help choosing? Let's break down what to look for in a professional timer or alert system.

Audibility is Key

Can you hear it over a noisy extractor fan and  the general clatter of service? Look for adjustable volumes or multiple sound options.

Visual Cues

In a loud kitchen, a flashing light can be more effective than a sound. It's also essential for staff who may be hard of hearing.

Smart Connectivity

Does it need to work with other equipment? A system that links to temperature probes provides a complete safety net, not just a timer.

Built to Last

A domestic timer won't survive long. Look for durable, wipe-clean materials that can handle the heat, steam, and  knocks of a pro kitchen.

Reliable Power

Is battery-only a risk? For critical alerts, mains power with a battery backup is the professional standard, ensuring you're never left in the dark.

It's the difference between discovering ruined stock in the morning and  catching the problem in seconds. It automates your food safety checks, turning a manual task into an instant, reliable alert system.
