Legionella Control Association accredited Legionella Risk Assessment

Safe Solutions can provide an independent LCA Legionella Risk Assessment for your water systems. We work with clients to ensure that they remain compliant with the regulations and guidance and that their water systems remain safe. Post Risk Assessment, any issues will be identified, and a Written Scheme of Control implemented, if required, to ensure that any risk is minimised.

The assessment may also involve the collection of water samples from the water systems to test for the presence of Legionella bacteria. If Legionella is detected, appropriate measures can be taken to control and prevent its growth, such as flushing and disinfection or the implementation of ongoing water management and monitoring programs.

Contact us today to discuss your Legionella Risk Assessment requirements and how to integrate it into a complete Legionella Risk Management Plan.

Water Monitoring Programs

At Safe Solutions, our Water Monitoring Programs are designed to ensure ongoing compliance with legal and regulatory requirements, including those outlined in ACoP L8 and (S)HTM 04-01 for healthcare environments. Our routine monitoring includes systematic temperature testing of hot and cold water outlets, inspection and temperature logging of cold water storage tanks, and hot water heater performance checks. We also assess for microbial risk through targeted monitoring at sentinel outlets, ensuring that your water systems are functioning within safe parameters.

Where aerosol-generating outlets such as showers, hoses, or spray taps are present, we provide cleaning, descaling, and disinfection services as part of the monitoring program to control the risk of Legionella and other waterborne pathogens. By offering structured, reliable data alerts when compliance thresholds are breached, our monitoring programs provide actionable insights, enhance safety, and support robust record-keeping—helping you maintain a defensible position in audits and inspections while protecting your users and reputation.

Don’t leave compliance to chance. Contact Safe Solutions today to discuss your tailored Water Monitoring Program and ensure your systems are operating safely, legally, and efficiently.

Water System Schematic Drawings

Ensure compliance. Support risk assessments. Enhance water safety management.

At Safe Solutions, we provide Water System Schematic Drawings as a vital component of your Legionella control strategy and Written Scheme of Control. Accurate schematics are not only a best practice- but they are also an expectation under ACoP L8 and a critical requirement for any reliable Legionella Risk Assessment.

Contact us today to discuss your requirements or to integrate schematics into a complete Legionella Risk Management Plan.

Production of Written Scheme of Control

Stay compliant with ACoP L8.

At Safe Solutions, we produce comprehensive Written Schemes of Control to help duty holders, facilities managers, and estate operators meet their legal obligations under the HSE’s Approved Code of Practice (ACoP) L8. Where a Legionella Risk Assessment identifies a foreseeable risk that cannot be entirely eliminated, a formal Written Scheme is mandatory to control and manage that risk.

What Safe Solutions Provides

Using information obtained from your Legionella Risk Assessment, our experts will produce a tailored, site-specific Written Scheme of Control in line with current legislation and best practices, including BS 8580-1, HSG274 Part 2 and (S)HTM 04-01.

The scope of the Written Scheme is discussed and agreed with you to ensure it meets the specific needs and operational structure of your site.

Contact us today to discuss how we can support you with a site-specific Written Scheme of Control as part of your Legionella management program.

Microbial sampling

At Safe Solutions, we deliver precise and professional microbial water sampling services to help you monitor water quality and manage the risk of Legionella bacteria and other microbial contaminants. Our sampling procedures follow strict industry standards to ensure full compliance with BS 7592:2022.

Whether you are operating a healthcare estate, commercial facility, or industrial site, our microbial sampling services are designed to support your Legionella risk management, HSE compliance, and insurance requirements.

Contact us today to schedule microbial sampling or incorporate it into your Legionella control strategy.

Legionella Awareness Training

Build knowledge. Reduce risk. Stay compliant.

At Safe Solutions, we offer expert-led Legionella Awareness Training designed to equip Duty Holders, Facilities Managers, and maintenance staff with the practical knowledge they need to recognise risks, maintain compliance, and protect health and safety in buildings with water systems.

Our training is aligned with current guidance, including ACoP L8, HSG274, and sector-specific guidance such as (S)HTM 04-01 for healthcare environments.

Get in touch today to arrange an in-house training session.

Water Safety Audits

Independent audits to ensure compliance, control, and confidence in your water systems.

At Safe Solutions, we provide detailed and impartial Water Safety Audits to help organisations assess the effectiveness of their Legionella control measures, verify compliance with relevant legislation, and reduce the risk of waterborne disease outbreaks.

Whether you are a healthcare provider, Facilities Manager, or Responsible Person for a commercial or public sector building, our audits give you the insight and assurance you need to maintain a safe and compliant water system.

What’s Included in a Water Safety Audit?

Our comprehensive audit process includes:

  • Review of all Legionella Risk Assessments and Written Schemes of Control
  • Audit of water temperature logs, microbiological sampling records, and asset maintenance history
  • Inspection of control measures including flushing, descaling, storage, and treatment
  • Assessment of competency of Responsible and Appointed Persons
  • Detailed audit report with clear findings, risk ratings, and recommendations
  • Action plan for remedial works, monitoring enhancements, or system improvements

Healthcare Assessments to (S)HTM 04-01

Specialist water safety auditing to protect patient health and ensure (S)HTM compliance.

In healthcare environments, the stakes for water safety are higher than ever. Hospitals, clinics, and care settings must manage complex water systems where immunocompromised patients are particularly vulnerable to Legionella, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and other waterborne pathogens.

At Safe Solutions, we specialise in delivering independent Water Safety Audits tailored specifically for healthcare facilities, helping you meet the stringent requirements of (S)HTM 04-01, ACoP L8, and HSG274 Part 2 while protecting patients, staff, and visitors.

Contact us today to schedule a Water Safety Audit.

Cleaning & Disinfection of Water Tanks & Shower Heads

Maintain water hygiene, minimise bacterial risk, and meet compliance standards.

Safe Solutions provides specialist cleaning and disinfection services for water storage tanks, shower heads, and associated fittings — helping you reduce the risk of Legionella, biofilm formation, and other waterborne contaminants.

Routine cleaning and disinfection are critical control measures under ACoP L8, HSG274, and (S)HTM 04-01, especially in high-risk environments such as healthcare, hospitality, and public buildings.

Contact us today to schedule a site visit or include this as part of your Legionella control programme.

TMV Servicing

TMV (Thermostatic Mixing Valve) servicing involves annual or more frequent maintenance, including functional and failsafe testing, cleaning, calibration, and descaling, to ensure safe, controlled water temperatures and prevent scalding, especially for vulnerable groups like children and the elderly.

Regular servicing is a legal and safety requirement, particularly healthcare and social care facilities, to prevent issues like temperature fluctuation, Legionella bacteria growth, and system failure.
