Legionella risk can exist in any building water system if it is not properly designed, monitored, and maintained. ASHRAE 188 provides a framework that helps facilities identify risk areas, implement control measures, and create safer water management practices.
This standard emphasizes the importance of thoughtful system design, consistent monitoring, and performance optimization to reduce conditions where bacteria can grow. When these elements work together, facilities are better equipped to protect occupants and maintain compliance.
Southeast Pump & Equipment supports proactive Legionella risk management through smarter system design, improved circulation strategies, and water quality-focused solutions that strengthen safety and reliability.
