Pseudomonas

MSCompliance strongly recommends routine water testing including temperature monitoring of your site is carried out to ensure the water quality is meeting the legal requirements.

TMV Servicing & Installation

Thermostatic Mixing Valves (TMVs) are essential for controlling water temperature and preventing the risk of scalding, while also supporting compliance with health and safety standards. At MS Compliance, we provide expert TMV installation and routine servicing to ensure they are working efficiently, safely, and in line with current regulations. Our engineers carry out testing, cleaning, and calibration to give you peace of mind that your systems remain safe and reliable.

Legionella Remedial Works

Legionella remedial works are a crucial part of any legionella compliance programme. Legionella remedial works should be highlighted in your Legionella risk assessment or picked up through your routine water hygiene monitoring visits.

Under the Health & Safety at Work Act 1974 you have a duty to ensure that your water system is as low-risk as is reasonably possible to help prevent bacterial growth and the subsequent health hazards to the building’s occupants.

MSCompliance have experience working in a variety of sectors to reduce the risk of legionella

and carrying out remedial services. Take a look at some of the common issues that we can help to rectify:

Dead ends / Infrequently used outlets on the water system
Cold water storage tanks that do not meet WRAS approved standards
Water temperatures between 20-45oC within the system and in storage vessels
Poor turnover of water within the system
Deposits in stored water vessels and in water system that support bacterial growth

Water System & Cold Water Storage Tank Chlorination

The risk from exposure to legionella should be controlled by keeping the water system and water in it clean and free from nutrients, including those arising from contamination and corrosion; and maintaining its cleanliness.

Hot and cold water services should be cleaned, flushed and disinfected in the following situations, as specified in BS 8558:

When the hot and cold water is not used for a prolonged period and has not been flushed as recommended or the control measures have not been effective for a prolonged period.
On routine inspection of the water storage tanks, where there is evidence of significant contamination or stagnation.
If the system or part of it has been substantially altered or entered for maintenance purposes that may introduce contamination.
Following water sampling results that indicate evidence of microbial contamination of the water system
During, or following an outbreak or suspected outbreak of legionellosis linked to the system.
or where indicated by the risk assessment.

Legionella Risk Assessment

If you are an employer, or someone in control of premises, including landlords, you must understand the health risks associated with legionella. Under the Health & Safety at Work Act 1974, every business or person in control of premises is required to carry out a risk assessment to identify possible sources of legionella in their building, and take action to control or prevent the risks if necessary.

MSCompliance have extensive knowledge and expertise of the factors that contribute to legionella risk and have carried out risk assessments for a variety of sectors across the UK. Our risk assessments are tailored to the potential risks at your site and are compliant with the HSE’s Approved Code of Practice on Legionella Prevention, L8 and HSG274 Part 2.
