The Importance of Legionella Risk Management & Prevention Planning

Any water system could become a source for legionella bacteria growth under certain environmental conditions.

While ponds, rivers, and lakes are common places to find legionella bacteria, outbreaks of Legionnaires’ disease rarely originate from these sources.

Legionnaires disease and illness outbreaks typically occur from exposure to legionella bacteria in purpose-built, man-made systems, including:

  • Hot water systems
  • Cold water systems
  • Spa pools
  • Cooling towers
  • Emergency showers
  • Humidifiers
  • Air washers
  • Ornamental fountains

Water in purpose-built systems is typically sustained at a specific temperature that encourages the growth of legionella bacteria. As a result, effective legionella prevention planning is necessary to reduce the risk of exposure and ensure legal compliance.
