Our Water Hygiene Services
Legionella Risk Assessment
Our qualified and experienced risk assessors will carry out a full inspection of your site(s) and digitally document the risk of Legionella in your water system(s). We will advise you on your risk level, make recommendations and prioritise remedial work to ensure compliance and keep your premises safe. All Legionella risk assessments are carried out in accordance with ACoP L8 4th edition and BS 8580-1:2019.
Legionella Management Plans
Having a Legionella management plan is a legal requirement. Our qualified Legionella control experts will work with you to develop a robust plan to ensure your legal compliance. Alternatively, we can help with your existing plan to address any vulnerabilities. We can also keep you up-to-date with the latest requirements so that you and your building occupants are protected.
Temperature Monitoring
Stay aware of any changes or activities taking place in your water system with remote temperature monitoring. Early warning alerts allow us to take swift remedial action should a problem arise. With real-time monitoring you can keep track of Legionella risk and be confident that you remain compliant. It also avoids time-consuming manual temperature checks which significantly reduces the cost of labour, travel and carbon emissions.
Laboratory Sampling & Testing
We undertake laboratory sampling and testing for any type of water system from commercial boilers to cooling towers. Our independent UKAS-accredited laboratories will analyse the samples for pathogens such as Legionella, E-Coli, and Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Pseudomonas species. If a positive result is recorded, we will immediately contact you to advise and agree on remedial action. All activity and results are documented on our customer portal for easy access by our clients, along with illustrated trend data.
Thermostatic Mixing Valves (TMVs)
We offer thermostatic mixing valve (TMV) installation, servicing, maintenance and testing. In-service (failsafe) safety checks are carried out to ensure valve performance and prevent the risk of scalding. Data for all assets are automatically uploaded to our CAFM providing immediate visibility of works completed.
Cold Water Storage Tanks
Our comprehensive cold water storage tank services include installation, cleaning and disinfection, as well as routine inspections, servicing and maintenance to safeguard your water supply and tank life span. From deterioration to non-compliance, our experienced service technicians can diagnose problems quickly and efficiently and advise on remedial action.
Shower Head Cleaning
Routine shower head clean, descale and disinfection ensures that there is no build-up of sediment, sludge, biofilms and other contaminants that may encourage microbiological growth, and thereby maintains compliance with health and safety guidance and best practice.
Flushing Regimes
Regular flushing of little-used water outlets forms a vital part of Legionella control, particularly where premises remain under-used or empty for any period of time. Our service technicians can ensure that your water systems are flushed regularly to prevent stagnation and ensure that your water systems, including drinking water supplies, remain safe for tenants.
Water Softeners
Our experienced service technicians provide full-service water softener system design, installation, servicing and maintenance for properties with water quality issues due to hardness. Regular servicing keeps your water softener running smoothly and efficiently. Should your system need remedial work, our service technicians are able to complete all tasks from system design and installation through to full refurbishment of any softeners, and will therefore ensure that you avoid costly contamination and loss of efficiency of your water systems through scale deposition.
