How we approach water hygiene in Leatherhead
Commercial property in Leatherhead includes business parks and small office units, high-street shops and offices above and managed residential blocks and HMOs. Each has different hours, plant and statutory duties, so the scope is set after we have walked the site.
In Leatherhead, buildings with low occupancy or seasonal use need particular care because little-used outlets raise Legionella risk.
What water hygiene and legionella control covers
Water hygiene is the control of Legionella and other bacteria in a building's hot and cold water systems. It starts with a Legionella risk assessment, followed by a written scheme of monthly temperature checks, flushing of little-used outlets and periodic cleaning.
