In 2013, potentially lethal levels of Legionella bacteria were found in the showers of a Leisure Centre in Swindon. The higher than normal levels of bacteria in the water services were found during a routine check and could have lead to cases of Legionnaires disease. This case, in particular, identifies that health and safety measures need to be put into force to reduce the risk of potential life-changing scenarios.
Legionnaires disease can be contracted when inhaling microscopic water droplets containing Legionella bacteria. Hotels, hospitals, leisure centres and offices can be offenders of finding bacteria in their water supply from purpose-built water cooling towers and systems with variable water temperatures. Identifying the issue requires industry professionals.
The hygiene of the water systems in your premises is the responsibility of the employee or person in control of the property. It is their role to ensure that the assessment is completed with closed-system testing. Our professional standards and accredited training skills are carried out in each and every individual premises to ensure the most thorough of checks.

With 45 years of experience in the industry, we are professional consultants fully qualified in water hygiene control services. Our comprehensive risk assessments highlight any potential harm to health. Once we have assessed potentially contaminated water we then treat the supply with chlorine dioxide to control the bacteria.
Identifying the growth of legionella in hot and cold water systems is an important factor within any premises. The sooner water supplies are assessed and issues are reported, the sooner we can control legionella bacteria in your water supply. Control measures through Legionella water treatment can be the difference between an admin issue that needs addressing in your day-to-day business, to a life or death scenario.
A legal requirement to carry out an assessment, it is our aim to provide a clear understanding of the risks present in your business or building. We then highlight the dangers of legionella bacteria in water systems. By talking through the process with Primary Water Solutions, together we can report cases, overcome any issues then manage and control them for the best outcome.
