Stop Treating Legionella Compliance Like a Tick-Box Exercise

Traditional monthly checks give you a snapshot, not real safety. Legionella Watch provides continuous, data-driven monitoring so you can actually manage risk — not just pass audits.

Certified member of the Legionella Control Association (LCA) and trusted nationwide by high-stakes sectors like Healthcare and Housing.

The Truth: Your Legionella Compliance

Might Only Look Safe on Paper

For years, Legionella monitoring has followed the same pattern: the same outlets, the same time each month, the same “all clear” report. It’s convenient, predictable – and dangerously misleading.

Built Around Calendars, Not Risk
Monthly Snapshots, Not Real Insight
Tick-Box Mentality, Not Protection

Checks happen when the “man in the van” can attend, not when your system is most vulnerable.

Temperature readings taken once a month tell you what’s happening at that moment – not what’s happening the other 29 days.

Duty holders are handed reports that appear compliant, while hidden conditions for Legionella growth can go completely unnoticed.

If Buildings Have Moved On,

Why Hasn’t Legionella Monitoring?

A person examines a complex plumbing system, writing on a clipboard. The system has red and blue pipes in a utility room.

Today’s buildings are complex, dynamic environments. Occupancy patterns change, systems are extended, outlets go unused, and expectations around safety and ESG are higher than ever. Yet many organisations still rely on a monitoring model designed decades ago.

Modern Legionella monitoring should be:

  • Continuous or high-frequency – not once-a-month snapshots
  • Risk-based – driven by system behaviour, not diary slots
  • Transparent – giving duty holders live visibility, not delayed reports
  • Flexible – letting you choose a level of protection that reflects how much you value your occupants
