High-Risk Water Systems
High-risk water systems like cooling towers and spa pool systems require constant management to ensure they are free from Legionella bacteria
High-Risk Water Systems
If your business contains one of the following water systems, there may be a high risk of Legionella exposure.
- A cooling tower
- A wet and dry cooling system
- An evaporation condenser
- Cold water system
- Showers
- Spray taps
- Fire sprinklers
- Spa pool or jacuzzi
- Steam room
Cooling towers are particularly high-risk, as aerosol created by cooling towers can create and spread breathable droplets of water containing Legionella bacteria. It is essential that employees, building residents and visitors with weaker immune systems are not exposed to contaminated water droplets.
