Legionella pneumophila is the bacterium responsible for Legionnaires’ disease — a severe, potentially fatal form of pneumonia. It is not passed between people. Instead, it is transmitted through inhaling fine water droplets or aerosol from contaminated water systems: showers, taps, cooling towers, water features, and any outlet where warm, stagnant conditions have allowed the bacteria to multiply. The good news is that testing for Legionella is straightforward, affordable, and something that any property owner can do — with the right kit and the right guidance.
Legionella testing involves collecting water samples from the key outlets within your property — typically hot-water taps and showers — and sending them to an accredited laboratory for microbiological analysis. The laboratory cultures your samples and identifies whether Legionella bacteria are present, and if so, at what concentration. You receive a formal result and a compliance document that you can use for insurance, regulatory, or landlord purposes.
Under the Health and Safety at Work Act and COSHH regulations, employers have a legal duty to manage Legionella risk in workplace water systems. This applies to offices, shops, hotels, restaurants, factories, and any other commercial premises.
