To safeguard the health of building occupants, nearby personnel and even individuals innocently passing nearby, professionals who design and install chiller systems with cooling towers seek solutions that reduce the chance of spreading the potentially deadly Legionella bacteria causing Legionnaire’s disease.
Fortunately, continuous monitoring devices are now on the market that can detect airborne Legionella and provide automatic notification within a matter of hours. This not only eliminates waiting days for outside lab results, but also enables a proactive response, dramatically reducing the risk of a devastating outbreak or costly litigation.
