Legionella Monitoring to meet HSE Guidelines

Once you have your Legionella Risk Assessment completed, and signed off all the actions recommended within it, you now must monitor and maintain your water systems to ensure the remedial works you have carried out remain effective.

The HSE provides excellent documentation on monitoring legionella bacteria in hot and cold-water systems. This is the basis for any legionella control scheme, and we will recommend the contents as a minimum. 

A legionella control scheme will typically include the following:

  • A Legionella Risk Assessment.
  • The specific role of an appointed competent person is known as the ‘responsible person’.
  • The control schemes.
  • Review of control measures.
  • Duties and responsibilities of those involved in the supply of water systems.

Franks Portlock can assist you with all the above, including the design and implementation of a control scheme in line with the current guidelines produced by the HSE.
