ACoP L8 and HSG 274 (Parts 1–3) require that employers and responsible persons must have a suitable and sufficient legionella risk assessment carried out on their premises which should then be used to generate a Written Scheme for control incorporating the requirements laid out in the ACoP L8 document.
Legionella Risk Assessments are the core service provided by ECM Water Hygiene which over time has provided the company with extensive experience of a wide range of water systems, clients and in properties of varying sizes from very large hospital complexes, industrial plants, hotels and office blocks to the smallest of domestic housing and remote sites (such as windfarms), with the accompanying variance in types of systems included within these buildings such as private water supplies, including boreholes and rainwater capture systems.
A comprehensive and competent risk assessment is the first step in your control regime and in order to ensure this ECM Water Hygiene have extensive experience and are qualified to City and Guilds level in “Legionella Risk Assessment in Building Water Systems (ACOP L8 and HTM/SHTM 04-01)” standard via external accredited training bodies.
This is one of the highest standards available in the industry demonstrating ECM Water Hygiene's commitment to providing the most technically competent assessors.
Our assessments are carried out with due reference to
BS:8580-1: 2019 “Water quality – Risk assessments for Legionella
control – Code of practice”, the British Standard for risk assessments. This standard provides guidance to what you should expect from your assessment and assessor.
When working within NHS/healthcare premises ECM Water Hygiene also apply the appropriate HTM/SHTM 04-01 standards for these buildings.
ACoP L8 and HSG 274 (Parts 1–3) requires that employers and responsible persons must have a suitable and sufficient legionella risk assessment carried out on their premises which should then be used to generate a Written Scheme for control incorporating the requirements laid out in the ACoP L8 document.
The risk assessment should also highlight areas of non-compliance in design or construction of the system and distribution materials which may require remedial works to bring up to the required standards.
An ECM Water Hygiene L8 risk assessment will provide you with:
- a thorough overview of the potential legionella risks associated with your system including attaching localised risk ratings to each area assessed to allow prioritisation of any corrective works and actions. It will also provide guidance on how to eliminate or minimise the risks including remedial works where required.
- provision of water system drawings and/or review of current installers "as fitted" drawings if available.
- clearly identifying where remedial actions are required and the recommended actions.
- access to some of the best trained and qualified remedial plumbers in the industry with accompanying industry recognised accreditation.
In addressing the findings of the risk assessment and the written scheme, responsible persons should be guided by the principle of designing out potential problems in the water system.
