Cooling Tower Solutions
Keeping Systems Efficient and Safe
Cooling tower chemical analysis in accordance with HSG 274 Part 1 is an essential part of Legionella control and system performance management. It involves routine testing of water chemistry to ensure effective biocide control, corrosion and scale prevention, and compliance with legal and safety standards. Regular analysis helps verify that dosing systems are operating correctly, treatment programs are balanced, and microbial activity is under control. Adhering to HSG 274 Part 1 ensures cooling systems remain efficient, safe, and compliant with the ACoP L8 requirements for Legionella risk management.
Closed Circuit Systems
Maximising LTHW Delivery
BG29 and BG50 LTHW testing services focus on maintaining the efficiency, safety, and longevity of low temperature hot water (LTHW) heating systems. BG29 (pre-commission cleaning) ensures new or refurbished systems are free from debris, corrosion, and installation contaminants before operation, while BG50 provides guidance for the ongoing monitoring, maintenance, and testing of in-service systems. Together, these standards help achieve optimum thermal performance, minimize breakdowns, and extend equipment life through regular water quality analysis and system health checks.
Legionella Control Strategies
Protecting Health and Compliance
Legionella control strategies in accordance with HSG 274 Part 2 focus on managing risks in hot and cold water systemsthrough effective design, maintenance, and monitoring. The guidance outlines control measures such as maintaining correct water temperatures, preventing stagnation, regular flushing of infrequently used outlets, and routine inspection and disinfection of storage and distribution systems. It also emphasizes the importance of accurate record-keeping, risk assessment reviews, and microbiological sampling to verify control effectiveness. Following HSG 274 Part 2 ensures compliance with ACoP L8 and helps safeguard users by minimizing the potential for Legionella bacteria growth and aerosol transmission.
