The record shows that “YOU KNOW IT'S COLD WHEN IT'S MINUS FORTY” is a live, registered mark on the Principal Register owned by MINUS FORTY QBD CORP., a Canadian corporation. It protects goods in classes 011 and 037, specifically air‑conditioning and refrigeration equipment such as air conditioners, freezers, ice‑making machines, and the installation, maintenance, and repair of those appliances. A similar name used for products or services that fall within those categories would raise the closest record‑based concern. The record does not give the owner control over every use of the wording, only the listed goods and services. The prosecution history shows a straightforward registration with no Supplemental Register steps. The most recent maintenance event was the acceptance of the 10‑year renewal on August 14, 2026, and the next key date is the status date of August 14, 2026. No enforcement actions appear in the supplied history. For someone considering a similar name, the risk is that using it for similar refrigeration or air‑conditioning products could lead to potential infringement concerns.

The way I'd use it, honestly, is as the thing you attach when a bank, a marketplace, or a co-founder asks "are we clear on the name". It answers in one page.
