Letting Agents Water Sampling

Are you a letting agent or landlord, confused or concerned about the HSE’s mandatory risk assessment for Legionella? Are you unsure what your duty involves? If you’re not sure where to turn to for advice or risk assessment services, don’t worry. The Aqua B Group can help.

 

The AquaB Group provides fully compliant legionella risk assessment services for the control of Legionella bacteria and offer bespoke services specifically to the domestic market.  They have a wealth of experience in assisting letting agents and landlords to avoid failure of compliance with the Health and Safety and Work Act.  In extreme cases when left unaddressed it could result in criminal prosecution, including fines of up to £20,000 per breach and up to 2 years imprisonment.  So letting agents ignore this requirement with potentially significant consequences.  Aqua B’s Compliance Officers and Field Technicians will carry out legionella risk assessments and can also undertake water sampling from the considered highest risk outlet for extra peace of mind.  Water analysis will in fact provide confirmation of levels of the bacteria that are actually present. 

They will inspect header tanks and exposed pipework, record temperature control settings and reset if necessary, and sanitise shower heads and wastes. Their assessment will identify any risks, and they’ll also provide advice and literature for both you and your tenants. So put yourself in the hands of the experts -visit the AquaB website.
