Legionella & Water Quality

Waterborne pathogens continue to impact our water systems. Do you have a water management plan in place to effectively implement Legionella and other waterborne pathogen prevention in your building?

Water system management and water quality monitoring help aid the prevention, recognition, evaluation and control of the Legionella bacteria and other waterborne pathogens in building water systems. These systems can include potable water systems, kitchens and food preparation areas, water features, pools & spas, and other areas where water is present. Legionella in hospitals is of particular concern.

FACS works with building management to develop teams and custom programs to help minimize the potential for Legionella or other microorganism outbreaks in building water systems. Our water consulting services include site risk assessments, closed water system testing, control plan development, assistance with deployment of support structure, implementation training, performing audits to evaluate and document control measures, and conducting validation sampling to demonstrate effectiveness. To ensure a swift response to any future potential outbreaks, our experts also work closely with the buildings’ staff to develop contingency plans.

Legionnaires’ disease and other Legionella related issues resulting from water can be serious, developing in cooling towers, hot tubs, domestic water, and elsewhere. Finding a qualified water quality consultant is a must–that’s where we come in. If you’re worried about Legionella in water, or if you need a Legionella or Waterborne Pathogens Management Plan (also known as a Water Safety Plan), FACS should be your first stop.

Case Study

Upscale Spa Quickly Recovers from Outbreak of Legionella Bacteria

The California Department of Public Health (DPH) identified an upscale spa as the probable source of a Legionnaires’ disease outbreak. Officials ordered the business to cease operation, pending inspection to prove or disprove the suspicion. Spa management asked FACS to investigate the situation and act as a liaison between the business and the DPH.
