“Legionella consulting turns risk into control—mapping your water systems, setting clear limits for temperature and disinfectant, and verifying fixes so problems don’t return.”
“Legionella testing turns guesswork into control—targeted, site-specific sampling using standard methods (culture, Legiolert, PCR) with fast, plain-English reports so you can act before risk escalates.”
“Point-of-use filters give you an immediate, validated barrier at taps and showers—reducing exposure to Legionella while long-term system fixes are underway.”
“Legionella Water Management Plans turn scattered tasks into a single playbook—hazard analysis, clear control limits (temperature, disinfectant residual, flushing), routine monitoring, and defined corrective actions—so risk is managed daily, not after an event.“
ChemREADY provides comprehensive Legionella risk management for industrial, commercial, and municipal facilities across Greater Cleveland and Northeast Ohio. With a local office in Twinsburg, OH, our technicians deliver on-site assessments, sampling, implementation, and ongoing monitoring—keeping your domestic plumbing and cooling towers safe, documented, and under control.
Our ChemREADY services include:
We serve the following industries:
We combine decades of national experience with local service teams, so you get proven Legionella solutions backed by technicians who understand your region’s water, building infrastructure, and seasonal risks. We design Legionella programs tailored to domestic hot and cold water systems, recirculation loops, storage tanks, cooling towers, and point-of-use outlets—not cookie-cutter controls. Our approach sets clear targets for temperature and disinfectant residual, implements flushing schedules, removes dead legs, applies secondary disinfection where needed, deploys point-of-use filtration in high-risk areas, and optimizes cooling-tower biocide/biodispersant rotation and blowdown. We verify performance with culture, Legiolert, and PCR testing, trend results over time, and document everything in line with ASHRAE 188, CDC, CMS, and Joint Commission guidance—reducing outbreak risk, passing surveys, protecting occupants, and avoiding costly emergency remediation.
Walk domestic hot/cold water, recirc loops, storage tanks, and cooling towers. Identify hazard points and build the foundation for a Water Management Plan (WMP).
Create an ASHRAE 188–aligned program that defines control locations, responsibilities, and verification/validation methods—the core tool for preventing Legionella.
Use the right mix of culture (11–14 days), Legiolert (~7 days), and qPCR (2–48 hours) through certified partner labs; deploy swabs/strips for investigations.
Establish temperature and disinfectant residual limits, monitor routinely, and adjust based on data—testing + disinfection + a maintained WMP.
Apply fit-for-purpose methods: chemical disinfection (e.g., chlorine, copper-silver ionization), heat shock where appropriate, and tower hygiene/biocide programs.
Install validated tap/shower filters as an immediate barrier in high-risk areas; 0.2-micron filtration blocks bacteria at the outlet.
Provide clear reports, recordkeeping, and staff education so the program is executable and audit-ready for your facility type.
Review data regularly; when positives occur, execute corrective actions (cleaning/disinfection or installing treatment systems) and refine the plan over time.
