Viega is extending its free training course on reducing the risk of microbial growth in commercial plumbing systems.
“These seminars are an excellent opportunity for engineers to learn about waterborne pathogens and new design strategies to reduce the risk of microbial growth for commercial potable water systems,” said Derek Bower, product director, metal systems, Viega. “This is all part of Viega’s commitment to promote safe water throughout the U.S. and around the planet.”
Viega’s water quality campaign focuses on the Viega system solutions to help the engineering community design systems that minimize the risk of waterborne pathogens. Promoting hot water recirculation and keeping water at the correct temperature can help reduce the opportunity for bacteria to colonize. Different types of common bacteria such as Legionella, found in drinking water systems, can cause illness or death.
