Legionella compliance is a legal duty for those responsible for managing water systems in non-domestic buildings.
At TWC, we support duty holders and those managing buildings in meeting their obligations under ACoP L8 and HSG274 through structured, evidence-based compliance programmes.
Legionella compliance means employers and premises holders must manage risks from Legionella bacteria in water systems by conducting risk assessments, implementing control measures (temperature control, flushing), appointing competent persons, keeping detailed records and regularly reviewing plans.
Since 1992, TWC has been providing Legionella Compliance services and we are registered with the Legionella Control Association.
Our approach focuses on prevention, clarity, and consistency. We help clients understand their systems, manage risk effectively, and maintain accurate records that stand up to scrutiny.
Whether you oversee a single site or a complex portfolio, our team provides reliable support at every stage.
Routine monitoring protects your systems between assessments.
We carry out thorough Legionella risk assessments that identify hazards, assess risk, and define proportionate control measures. Each assessment includes a clear Written Scheme of Control that outlines roles, monitoring requirements, and remedial actions.
Our engineers conduct temperature monitoring, outlet and asset inspections, flushing regimes, and system checks in line with regulatory guidance. Findings are recorded accurately, with clear escalation where action is required.
Where appropriate, we carry out microbiological sampling and trend analysis. Reports are structured, easy to interpret and stored digitally to support audits, inspections, and internal reviews.
Compliance is not static. We work closely with clients to review performance, update assessments, and adapt controls as buildings or usage change.
