Managing Legionella pneumophila in Water Systems
Utilities might be in compliance with water treatment regulations, but is this enough to safeguard against pathogens such as Legionella?
Keeping Legionella in check in a distribution system involves a systematic program of disinfection, hydraulic management, nutrient limitation, and temperature control.
If a utility decides to monitor for Legionella, several options are available. Certain questions should be considered, and a plan should be in place in case Legionella is detected.
