Our Water Analysis, Monitoring and Advice service provides you with a comprehensive range of tests to verify that your water is safe.

All water samples taken are sent for analysis at a UKAS registered laboratory, and the results are presented back to you with a Summary of any remedial action that you need to take if the test is out of specification.

The types of tests conducted are:

Legionella analysis
To adhere to the A.C.o.P L8 advice to operators of commercial buildings that contain water services to “maintain a clean system”, this routine monitoring of any system enables you to create support evidence that you are in control of your building’s risk against Legionella.

TVC Analysis, looking for pathogenic bacteria based on colony count per litre
Our TVC sample is collected following a routine clean and disinfection of a water system including the cold water storage cistern and down services. The test involved is the same as for drinking water and ensures a successful clean and disinfection.

Tank and surface swabs
A.C.o.P L8 advises operators of commercial buildings that contain water services to ensure that you “maintain a clean system”. By regular inspection and strategic monitoring by tank swab this can be achieved.

Drinking water
Colony counts and coli forms including e-coli.

Swimming pool, therapy pool and jacuzzi
The Pool Water Treatment Advisory Group advises pool operators on how to treat pools, including taking monthly pool samples to be tested for colony counts, coli forms and pseudomonads.

Swimming pool water
To test pH, free and total chlorine, hardness and alkalinity.
