Water is not sterile. It can harbor bacteria such as Legionella, which can cause severe illness and even death. Recent outbreaks have taught us that Legionella is not specific to any geographic area and that no industry is immune from outbreaks.
As the global leader in water safety for more than 30 years, Nalco Water is uniquely qualified to design a water management plan and advise on water system safety to help you manage and reduce Legionella risk, all while operating responsibly and profitably.
Potable and utility water systems in healthcare settings are reservoirs and vectors of HAIs resulting in pneumonias, bacteremias and a variety of infections.

With increased liability concerns, many facilities are facing the need to develop effective prevention programs for waterborne pathogens, such as Legionella.
We offer continuous supplemental disinfection systems and monitoring services for potable water and other water systems as part of a managed program to control microbial hazards such as Legionella.
Once your water management plan is in place, the results of your routine Legionella testing and your oxidant residual and water temperature monitoring may indicate a need for implementing a more robust control strategy. Whether those steps require short-term remediation, such as hyperchlorination or thermal eradication, or long-term control strategies, such as supplemental disinfection, point-of-use water filters or even a cooling tower system protocol, you need an experienced partner in water system safety to provide guidance.
