Ensure that at all times, sanitizer is maintained at effective concentrations for sanitizing of equipment, utensils, and food contact surfaces. Quaternary ammonium compounds (quats) sanitizer to be maintained at 200 ppm or as per manufacturer's specifications for food contact surfaces. Verify with proper test strips that are within expiry, and change sanitizing solution as often as necessary in order to maintain effective concentrations.
