ASHRAE Standard 188 titled, “Legionellosis: Risk Management for Building Water Systems,” was developed over a 10-year period by a cross-functional team of experts from the fields of engineering, plumbing, equipment design, microbiology and public health.
ASHRAE Standard 188 lays out a cost-effective path for Legionella control in building water systems that will, in addition to controlling the risk of Legionnaires’ disease in building water systems, be a much-needed catalyst for change.
