SPONSORED STORY: Legionella bacteria thrive in static water, especially in warmer weather. They can multiply in unshaded pipework and water tanks, risking outbreaks of Legionnaires’ Disease, which can be fatal to those with underlying health conditions. For a building manager, there are simple ways to mitigate this risk.
The first step towards ensuring a Legionella compliant property is a Legionella risk assessment. This helps those responsible to prove they have taken the necessary steps needed to keep people safe.
We help companies when carrying out in depth Legionella risk assessments by identifying key areas for improvement to ensure their compliance with current Legionella control regulations. This process ensures that vital practices and effective protocols are put into place to control the risk and monitor conditions within the water system.
Although anyone can contract Legionnaires’ Disease, people who are elderly, smokers, alcoholics, and those with cancer, diabetes, or chronic respiratory or kidney disease are at greater risk.
