Water hygiene isn't something you can 'see' : and that's exactly what makes silent risks like Legionella so dangerous in social housing.
For Housing Managers and Environmental Health Officers, a stagnant water system in a void or communal property can become a serious public health liability before it's ever detected. Legionella bacteria thrive in water between 20–45°C and in areas of poor flow : showerheads, empty tanks, little-used outlets and communal water systems.
Our CPD-certified water hygiene support helps local authorities to:
• Assess risk across communal and void properties
• Identify dead-legs, low-use outlets and poor-flow areas
• Implement control and disinfection measures
• Keep audit-ready documentation for inspection and records
Rigorous, documented water hygiene protects both your residents and your authority. If your housing stock needs a Legionella risk assessment or a water systems compliance review, our team is ready to help across the North West.
