Water hygiene and treatment FAQ's

What is water hygiene and why is it important?

Water hygiene refers to the management and treatment of water systems to prevent contamination and ensure safety. It is crucial for preventing health risks such as Legionella bacteria growth, which can cause Legionnaires’ disease.

What is a Legionella risk assessment?

A Legionella risk assessment identifies potential risks in your water systems where Legionella bacteria could develop. It includes inspecting water storage tanks, pipework, and temperature control measures to ensure compliance with health regulations.

How often should Legionella risk assessments be carried out?

It is recommended to conduct a Legionella risk assessment at least once every two years or sooner if there are changes to the water system, building usage, or previous assessment findings.

What are water temperature checks, and why are they necessary?

Water temperature checks help prevent Legionella growth by ensuring that cold water stays below 20°C and hot water is stored above 60°C. Regular monitoring is key to maintaining safe water conditions.

What does comprehensive water monitoring involve?

Comprehensive water monitoring includes sampling, temperature checks, bacterial testing, and chemical treatment to ensure water quality meets safety regulations.

Who needs TM44 air conditioning energy inspections?
