What is a Commercial Legionella risk assessment?

Commercial Legionella risk assessments play a crucial role in identifying and assessing the potential risk of Legionella bacteria proliferation and transmission within water systems.

Legionellav is known for causing the severe and potentially fatal pneumonia called Legionnaires’ disease. It thrives in water environments, particularly in intricate building water systems like cooling towers, hot and cold water systems, and air conditioning systems.

With regular assessments and continuous monitoring you can safeguard the health and safety of individuals occupying the building. The findings and recommendations derived from these assessments will allow you to form an effective water management plan.

These plans are essential for implementing preventive measures, ensuring compliance with safety regulations, and maintaining a secure environment for all building occupants.
