4 Health & Safety compliance Radio Frequency sensors at critical points Real time temperatures online Audit trail and critical alerts Auto-flush infrequently used outlets Electronic monthly reports and log book Legionella Intelligence

5 It is an obligation of employers to monitor and manage their water systems in buildings The control measures required are detailed in the Approved Code of Practice & Guidance L8 ACOP L8 indicates the best method of reducing Risk is Water System Temperature Monitoring Eliminating dead legs and stagnant water is another key element for controlling growth of Legionella Legionella - Legal Obligations

6 Typically a manual operation requiring access to site by a competent person The frequency and type of testing is indicated in table 3 of the ACOP L8 Open to possible human error Can be expensive and time consuming Legionella - Current Monitoring Methods

7 Exceeds ACOP L8 Legal Requirement 24/7 365 monitoring of water system Reduces unnecessary remedial work Accurately targets areas of concerns Repeatable Error Free Process Legionella - The Houseman Solution

15 ServicesTaskFrequencyHouseman Solution Hot Water ServicesArrange for samples to be taken from hot water calorifiers in order to note condition of drain water AnnuallyManual Check temperatures in flow and return at calorifier MonthlyAutomatic Check water temperature up to one minute to see if it has reached 50°c in the sentinel taps MonthlyAutomatic Visual check on internal surfaces of calorifiers for scale and sludge. Check representative taps for temperature as above on a rotational basis AnnuallyManual Cold Water ServicesCheck tank water temperature remote from ball valve and mains temperature at ball valve. Note maximum temperatures recorded by fixed max min thermometers where fitted Six MonthlyAutomatic Check the temperature is below 20 °c after running tap for up to two minutes in the sentinel taps MonthlyAutomatic Visually inspect cold water storage tanks and carry out remedial work where necessary. Check representative taps for temperature as above on a rotational basis AnnuallyManual Shower HeadsDismantle, clean and descale shower heads and hoses Quarterly or as necessary Manual Little Used OutletsFlush through and purge to drain, or purge to drain immediately before use, without release of aerosols WeeklyAutomatic L8 Compliance - L8 Table 3

16 FrequencyCheck Cold WaterHot Water Notes Monthly Sentinel taps (see glossary)The water temperature should be below 20°c after running the water for up to 2 minutes The water temperature should be at least 50 °c within a minute of running the water This check makes sure that the supply and return temperatures on each loop are unchanged I.e. the loop is functioning as required. If fitted, input to TMV’s on a sentinel basis The water supply to the TMV temperature should be at least 50°c within a minute of running the water One way of measuring this is to use a surface temperature probe. Water leaving and returning to calorifier Outgoing water should be at least 60°c, return at least 50°c If fitted, the thermometer pocket at the top of the calorifier and on the return leg are useful points for accurate temperature measurement. If installed, these measurements could be carried out and logged by a building management system. Six Monthly Incoming cold water inlet (at least once in winter and once in summer) The water should preferably be below 20°c at all times The most convenient place to measure is usually at the ball valve outlet to the cold water storage tank. Annually Representative number of taps on a rational basis The water should be 20°c after running the water for 2 minutes The water temperature should be at least 50°c within a minute of running the water This check makes sure that the whole system is reaching satisfactory temperatures for Legionella control.
