"Legionella control obligations vary according to the nature of your business, the complexities of your buildings, and their water systems. Getting this wrong could waste valuable time and resources or potentially damage your business reputation."

Education Building Complexities

Educational Establishments require specific risk assessment needs depending on the educational requirements of the students:

Building Complexity Considerations:

  • Multi-building estates with varied construction ages and legacy plumbing.
  • Secondary schools, colleges and universities with science labs, emergency showers, and technical workshops.
  • Research labs with purified water systems and cooling equipment.
  • Sports complexes with swimming pools, hydrotherapy facilities, and large shower blocks.
  • Boarding schools with fluctuating occupancy patterns and large-scale residential water usage.
  • SEND schools with adapted personal care spaces, medical treatment rooms, and mist-generating sensory features.
  • Buildings with phased expansions, creating complex pipe networks with potential dead legs.
  • Properties with irregular water usage patterns, increasing stagnation risks.
  • Large-scale communal water systems in housing associations with multi-tenant infrastructure.
