Legionella Solutions
Mitigating the risk of Legionella growth in a hospital, nursing home, hotel or other facility is a daunting effort. It requires an understanding of the conditions that foster Legionella growth and how to implement best practices and standards to inhibit the bacterium’s growth while protecting against other risks such as scalding and thermal shock. At Watts, we understand the challenge plumbing system designers and facility managers face in creating and executing an effective water management plan. It must not only balance the risks of waterborne pathogens, but also deal with the dangers of overheated water.
According to ASHRAE 188 and the CDC, the first step owners and managers of hospitality or healthcare facilities must take is to programmatically map out and identify the places at risk for Legionella contamination. Then you will be prepared to take additional steps to ensure that the water systems in your buildings are properly designed and maintained to reduce the risk of growing and spreading Legionella bacteria.
