About this file
This document is an appendix detailing the Defense Commissary Agency's (DeCA) Temperature and Environmental Standards/Limits for maintenance and repair of commissary facilities and equipment. The document provides comprehensive temperature ranges for various storage rooms, display cases, and reach-in storage boxes, specifying precise temperature limits for different food categories such as frozen food, meat, dairy, produce, and bakery items. For example, frozen food storage requires temperatures between -10 to 0°F, while bulk meat storage should be maintained between 28 to 32°F. The document also outlines room environment limits for different areas like sales and checkout, ADP rooms, and other spaces, prescribing specific cooling and heating temperature ranges, with additional guidelines for dew point control and temperature management during closed hours.
