Legionella Control for Commercial & Educational Properties
Protecting people, buildings and compliance — without the stress
Ensuring the safety of your building's occupants and maintaining compliance isn't optional—it's a fundamental legal duty. At CSE Facilities, we empower duty holders, responsible persons, and property managers to confidently meet their Legionella obligations with a fully managed, straightforward service.
Legionella risk is strictly governed by legislation, including the Health & Safety at Work Act 1974 and COSHH Regulations, with detailed guidance in HSE ACOP L8 and HSG274. If you manage a building with hot and cold water systems, you are legally required to assess, control, and meticulously record this risk. We make this entire process simpler, safer, and perfectly organised.
Why Legionella Control is Critical:
Legionella bacteria thrive in warm, stagnant water (20–45°C) and can spread through aerosols from common systems like showers, taps, and cooling towers. In severe cases, this leads to Legionnaires' disease—a serious, often fatal, form of pneumonia.
The Grave Consequences of Non-Compliance for Commercial & Educational Sites:
Unlimited fines and prosecution.
Building closure and significant operational disruption.
Serious harm to staff, pupils, visitors, and contractors.
Irreversible damage to your reputation.
Partner with CSE Facilities for clear control measures, robust documented evidence of compliance, and the assurance of a responsive, accessible team you can always get on the phone.
