6 ways to revolutionise Legionella compliance

for your business

The Invisible Risk Needs Smarter Solutions

Traditional methods of Legionella risk management - manual checks, infrequent sampling, and paper-based records are no longer enough. While they were once standard practice, these outdated approaches leave buildings vulnerable to compliance gaps, unexpected outbreaks, and unnecessary operational costs.

Common Failures in Traditional Legionella Mitigation


❌ Infrequent Checks

Manual inspections (often monthly) leave long gaps between data points, allowing risks to build undetected.

❌ No Real-Time Monitoring

Without continuous oversight, water temperature, stagnation, or flow changes go unnoticed until it's too late.

❌ Human Error

Logbooks, spreadsheets, and paper trails are prone to missed entries, inconsistency, and even falsification.

❌ Reactive, Not Preventative

Issues are only addressed once they become visible problems—by then, health and legal risks may already be present.

❌ Static Risk Assessments

Outdated reports often ignore changes in building use, occupancy, or system layout—meaning your mitigation plan may no longer match reality.

❌ High Costs, Low Insight

Routine testing and flushing can be expensive, but often provide little actionable intelligence or return on investment.
