Legionella Risk Assessments for Domestic Properties designed to meet the requirements of the ACOP L8, HSG 274 and BS 8580-1.
Health & safety law requires that a suitable and sufficent risk assessment must be carried out by a competent person to identify and assess the risk of exposure to legionella bacteria from water systems at your premises as well as any precautionary measures to reduce the risk.
Since 2013 domestic rented properties have required a Legionella Risk Assessment. The need for a risk assessment was confirm in HSE case 357. However, most domestic properties only need a simple assessment, do not need water testing or eleborate control measures.
Our Legionella Risk Assessments are approved by Trading Standards and certified by Trust Mark as meeting government endorsed quality standards.
Our assessors are City & Guilds Accredited, Water Safe registered, members of the CIPHE and recognised as Approved Contractors under the Water Regulations. We hold Gold membership with Constructionline and Once for All SSIP.
