Legionella Testing

If you are looking for legionella testing then we can help you here at Mercian Environmental services. Having safe water systems within your workplace is a legal requirement as set out in the Health & Safety at Work Act 1974, the Control of Substances Hazardous to Health (COSHH) Regulations 2002 and the HSC - Approved Code of Practice & Guidance document L8 - Legionnaires disease: The control of Legionella bacteria in water systems. These legislation were brought into act as a way to ensure that employers and building owners comply to the law to ensure that legionella testing is enforced to keep the workplace safe from the possibility of the potential fatally effect of legionnaires disease.

Here at Mercian Environmental we can support your business in order to meet these legislations with legionella testing that will assess your domestic hot and cold water systems for any trace of the legionella bacterium that causes this harmful disease. We can also help you with the preparation of a legionella control scheme that will help you to manage the risk, this is a tailored programme that involves inspection, sampling of water and disinfection amongst other key elements. We also implement the control scheme as part of legionella testing on your premises and the can be administered by either our engineers or your own staff to whom we can provide full awareness training to allow each individual to be allocated with responsibilities with the scheme. Finally we also carry out independent legionella control audits that will evaluate the effectiveness of any scheme that you have in place and are currently managing yourselves.
