Your responsibility
Legionella Control
You may be required to conduct a risk assessment for hot and cold water system to address all potential hazards – including Legionella – and then weigh up the risk. Water storage tanks are a potential breeding ground for Legionella and must be regularly inspected and cleaned as required in compliance with L8, BSRIA and CIBSE guidelines to prevent outbreaks of the life threatening illness which can be caused by this bacteria. It is necessary to be able to demonstrate through documentation all practicable steps have been taken to address the risks associated with water. Find out more about Legionella compliance and Legionella control.
Ventilation Duct Hygiene
Ductwork that forms part of the lungs of a building can be a route for bacteria to travel and smoke and fire to transfer throughout a building, so keeping it clean is very important. These systems must be cleaned regularly to ensure a clean air supply and efficient extraction minimises the risk of toxic mould from forming in poorly ventilated properties and reducing the risk of fire. Find out more about ventilation compliance and duct cleaning.
Fire Safety
To prevent fire, kitchen extract ductwork must be cleaned efficiently and effectively at regular intervals, in compliance with the leading industry guidance document TR/19 section 7. Kitchen extract systems in heavy use (12-16 hours a day) should be cleaned at least quarterly, moderate use (6-12 hours a day) should be cleaned half-yearly, light use (2-6 hours a day) should be cleaned at least once a year.
