Water sampling can provide valuable information about the microbiological condition of a water system, but not every water test looks for the same thing. Depending on the property, water system and reason for investigation, testing may include Legionella, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Total Viable Counts (TVC), E. coli and coliform bacteria.
A Legionella risk assessment is a structured evaluation of a property’s water system, identifying conditions that may allow Legionella bacteria to grow and spread.
