It is a legal requirement that all water services have a Legionella Risk Assessment carried out every two years.
With the aim of practical compliance with the Health & Safety document "L8-The Control of Legionella Bacteria in Water Systems", one of our trained assessors will visit site, and perform a comprehensive survey of all water systems, from their source through to point of use.
A detailed report will then be issued, outlining safe operating procedures for equipment on site, testing programmes, sampling frequencies and a schematic drawing of all water systems.
Based on the level of risk shown by the Assessment, Pennine Water Treatment Services may recommend a range of remedial actions, in order for you to comply with the law.
