Proper management keeps Legionella under control
A risk analysis and management plan form the basis of Legionella prevention, but ultimately, it is the control measures that make the difference. By periodically performing the proper inspections and maintenance tasks, you reduce the risk of Legionella growth and ensure that the drinking water system remains safe to use.
Normec helps organizations implement and document all the control measures necessary to systematically ensure water quality.
Management Tailored to Your Drinking Water System
The necessary management measures vary by building and drinking water system. That’s why we consider both the results of the risk analysis and how the system is actually used in practice.
Our services may include, among other things:
- Periodic temperature checks
- Legionella sampling
- Inspection of check valves and backflow preventers
- Annual water heater cleaning
- Inspection of the drinking water system
- Recording of implemented control measures

This ensures that all necessary inspections are performed on time and properly documented.
