The current Health and Safety Recommendations ACOP (L8), referring specifically to the control of legionellosis and legionnaires’ disease, recommends regular cleaning and disinfection of the following types of plant:

Cold water storage tanks
Hot water calorifiers
Cooling towers and evaporative condensers
Water softeners
Humidifiers
Shower heads
Spa baths
Horticultural misting systems
Car and bus washes
Indoor fountains and water features

PLANNED PREVENTATIVE & EMERGENCY PROJECTS
While cooling towers and other equipment such as humidifiers can be disinfected using specialist chemicals, domestic water systems can either be chemically or thermally disinfected.
However, in order for any disinfection method to work effectively, it is critical that the water systems are cleaned by specialists prior to the introduction of chemicals.

Amphibia’s consultants can provide customers with advice on which disinfection method is most suitable for them. We promise to provide a cost effective solution with minimal system down time.

For your peace of mind, all our disinfectants are food grade and approved for use in drinking water by the regulatory authorities. Furthermore, our disinfection methods comply with the highest standards including BS 6700.

PRE-COMMISSION PROJECTS
Domestic water systems and a number of industrial processes are prone to deposition and corrosion during installation, commissioning and operation. These problems can result in a loss of efficiency and may present potential health risks if hazardous micro-organisms are present.

Amphibia provide a professional cost effective Pre Commission cleaning service for newly installed commercial and industrial water systems.

We also provide routine cleaning programmes, as part of regular site maintenance activities or in response to breakdown and emergency situations.
