Legionella  

Even without visible contamination, water systems can support Legionella growth in hidden reservoirs. Detecting the bacteria through testing is essential to protect public health, prevent outbreaks, and maintain safe water system operations. Waiting for visual signs is inadequate because infections can emerge from microscopic bacterial growth long before any observable indicators appear.

​

To confirm effective disinfection, any required microbiological samples should be taken between two and seven days after the system is refilled. Samples taken immediately after a disinfection process may give false negative results.

​

Sampling is an effective control measure to identify problems before they develop, and to validate the cleanliness of your water.​

​

We take microbiological smaples in line with BS EN ISO 19458 and BS 7592:2022. This allows us to stay up to date and current with the latest knowledge and understanding.​​

​

Our chemical analysis services offer thorough testing for metals and essential indicators like pH and turbidity. By staying compliant with the most recent British standards, our expertise is always current, allowing us to provide an exeptional service.
