Mitigating Legionella Risk in Commercial Buildings

Mitigating Legionella Risk in Commercial Buildings

Regular Legionella testing for building owners and managers of commercial properties is essential to uphold the highest standards of public health and safety. Ontario's diverse climate and infrastructure make commercial properties susceptible to Legionella growth in water systems, posing a risk to occupants and visitors. Compliance with Ontario's health and safety regulations is paramount, and regular testing demonstrates a commitment to water quality safety and integrity of commercial properties in the region.

Legionella Safety Programs should include, but are not limited too:

  • Regular Legionella water testing
  • Legionella Training Programs 

Legionella testing frequency guidelines for buildings can vary, depending on industry and building type. Generally, testing quarterly is an acceptable minimum, though for best practice guidelines outlined by the Government of Canada, see our Legionella service page.

Testing Drinking Water

Testing drinking water is crucial for schools, business owners, and building owners to ensure the safety and well-being of occupants. For schools, where children spend a significant portion of their day, water quality directly impacts their health and academic performance. Business owners must prioritize water testing to guarantee a healthy work environment, safeguarding employees from potential contaminants and preventing productivity disruptions due to water-related illnesses. Building owners, responsible for the overall safety of occupants, need to conduct regular tests to identify and address any water quality issues promptly, mitigating risks and upholding a positive reputation.
