Legionella services from Store Maintenance safeguard your retail locations against the bacteria, protecting the health of your staff and customers. You have a mandatory requirement to comply with legislation covering Legionella. This includes ACOP L8, HSG274 and HTM 04-01 (Healthcare). If you do not, you can be faced with a large fine.
Legionella services to keep your locations safe and compliant
Legionella can take hold in any part of the water systems in your locations. Taps, hot water tanks, and areas of the plumbing that let water settle are all potential breeding grounds. Sediment and scale are also danger points, as are recirculating systems. And if you use water in a spray, the droplets can carry the bacteria. This makes them airborne and ready to be breathed in by staff or customers.
You should have regular assessments to check for the presence of Legionella. These can be on a regular timescale of your choice. But they should also be undertaken if there has been any changes to the system in place which could encourage bacteria to take hold. And you stay alert to where your water system contains products that have been associated with a Legionella outbreak elsewhere. If this happens you should also undertake an assessment immediately.
