Safe, Compliant and Efficient Water Systems
Water systems need to stay clean, balanced and fully compliant to protect people and keep buildings running safely. Regular testing and treatment ensure reliability, efficiency and compliance with HSE ACOP L8 and HSG 274. With structured monitoring and maintenance, your system stays safe, efficient and problem-free long term. Each stage is designed to meet the standards expected as a member of The Legionella Control Association.
Water treatment is delivered by qualified engineers with over 30 years’ experience in compliance and system performance. From disinfection and Legionella testing to closed-system checks, every stage is handled by specialists. All reports, certificates and results are issued electronically — reducing paperwork, improving traceability and cutting your carbon footprint.

Safe, efficient water systems tested, treated and maintained for long-term reliability
Why Preventative Monitoring Extends System Life
Unchecked water systems lead to corrosion, bacteria and costly breakdowns. Preventative monitoring identifies early changes in water chemistry before they cause damage. With the right treatments in place, your systems stay efficient, last longer and avoid sudden failures — saving money, reducing risk and improving long-term reliability.
Disinfection Before Building Use
During construction, water systems are exposed to contaminants. Disinfection removes bacteria before occupancy, ensuring the water supply is clean and safe. Once flushed and tested for potable quality, certification is issued. This guarantees compliance and gives complete confidence that the system is ready for safe use and handover.
Corrosion Testing and Water Chemistry
Closed-loop heating systems require close attention. Regular checks on pH, iron levels and inhibitor concentration detect early signs of corrosion. Chemical treatment programmes stabilise water chemistry and protect system components. Over time, this improves energy efficiency, reduces wear and prevents costly repairs — supported by full test data and compliance records.
