Stop guessing which indoor heat tier you are in.
Indoor work starts a written program at 82 F and control measures at heat index 87 F. RestShade watches indoor sites, applies T8 3396 automatically, and keeps the reading on file. Most days you do nothing. When indoor thresholds cross, it flags the room and pings the right people.
The problem
Indoor heat is the rule shops discover late, usually when a warehouse or kitchen gets asked for a program that was never written.
How RestShade helps
RestShade treats the work-area reading as the artifact. Mark a site indoor, and 3396 program duties and control measures attach to the number with the citation.
What you walk away with
- A written indoor heat program specific to your rooms and processes
- Readings on file for the shifts that crossed 82 F

How it works
- RestShade knows which sites are indoor Kitchens, warehouses, and plants get the 3396 pack instead of outdoor shade rules.
- Readings are evaluated against 3396 tiers Program duties at 82 F and control measures at heat index 87 F appear with citations.
- Supervisors sign when controls matter The log captures the reading, duties used, and supervisor acknowledgment in one record.
Frequently asked questions
- Which sites count as indoor? Anywhere the work is not outdoors: kitchens, warehouses, mezzanines, plants. You set the kind per site and can change it.
- Does 3396 replace 3395 entirely? Only for indoor sites. Shops with both keep 3395 on outdoor sites and 3396 indoors from the same account.
- Is a heat index calculation included? Yes. Enter temperature and humidity and RestShade derives the heat index, or enter the heat index directly.
