Legionella risk analysis checklist
Identify your unique water management system components and equipment
Successful prevention of Legionnaires’ disease requires the development and execution of a risk assessment and Water Quality Management Plan for your facility. Following the guidelines of ASHRAE 188 and the CDC, Watts has developed an easy-to-use checklist to help you take inventory of your facility's points of risk. It will guide you through the process of locating where Legionella may be present within your water distributions systems, identifying potential trouble areas and defining your action plan.
Assess the risks in your facility
Water systems vary in design and complexity from building to building. The solutions required to keep them safe will likewise be diverse. This checklist is designed to facilitate your discussion with qualified experts, to help you create standard operating procedures and to implement a Water Quality Management Plan. The risk analysis checklist is provided as an interactive PDF. You can complete the fields on your computer, save the file and print the results for reference. Or if you prefer, you can print the checklist and complete it by hand.
Build your Water Quality Management Plan
An outbreak of Legionella can have serious and even deadly consequences for people at your facility. Successful prevention requires that you ensure that that the water systems are properly designed and maintained. With this checklist, you and your team can:
- Document your facility’s water systems
- Determine the steps you need to take to mitigate the risk of Legionella
- Define standard operating procedures
Start on the path to effective Legionella mitigation by identifying the points of source, points of use and points of condition that may be lurking at your facility today. Then determine which solutions would be best for your facility and implement your Water Quality Management Plan. Completing this helpful checklist to document your facility's locations, characteristics, components and equipment is the first step in a methodical process to build a Water Quality Management Plan as outlined by ASHRAE 188. Watts is available to be with you, every step of the way.
