What Is Legionella and Why It Matters?
-
What legionella bacteria is
Legionella is a waterborne bacterium that can grow in hot and cold water systems such as tanks, pipework, taps and showers. It becomes a risk when water systems are not correctly managed or maintained.
-
How legionella spreads
People can become exposed by inhaling tiny water droplets that contain legionella bacteria. This can occur through showers, spray taps, cooling systems and other outlets that produce aerosols.
-
The health risks involved
Exposure to legionella can cause Legionnaires’ disease, a severe form of pneumonia that can be life threatening, particularly for older people or those with weakened immune systems.
-
Why ongoing control is essential
Managing legionella is not a one off task. Routine assessments, temperature monitoring and water testing are essential to maintain safe water systems and protect occupants over time.

What Is a Legionella Risk Assessment?
A legionella risk assessment is an inspection of a building’s water systems to identify and manage the risk of legionella bacteria. It ensures hot and cold water systems are safe to use and compliant with UK health and safety regulations.
For properties in London, the assessment involves checking water storage, pipework, outlets and temperatures to highlight any conditions that could allow legionella to grow. A written report is provided with practical recommendations to reduce risk and maintain ongoing water safety.
Legionella risk assessments are a legal requirement for landlords and businesses and should be reviewed regularly or when changes occur within the property.
