LEGIONELLA FOUND. SYSTEM TRANSFORMED 🦠
This private leisure centre in Shooter’s Hill had a serious issue with its hot water system - Legionella had been found within the water system supplying the showers, as well as the sauna and steam room.
Following a full inspection of the plant room, it was clear the existing system was outdated and had multiple issues that were contributing to the conditions in which the bacteria could grow.
We completely transformed the plant room, installing a new system including:
🔹New high-efficiency boiler
🔹Low loss header
🔹Plate heat exchanger
🔹 Pumped hot water storage system
🔹 Local temperature mixing valves to all outlets
🔹 Dedicated hot water return system
The new pumped system delivers 3 bar of instantaneous hot water, providing powerful showers across the facility; even when multiple outlets are being used at the same time.
The local temperature mixing valves also help minimise the risk associated with Legionella, while the hot water return significantly reduces draw-off times, meaning hot water reaches the outlets quickly.
🎥 This is Part 1…Part 2 is coming next, where we’ll take a closer look at the project with more in-depth pictures of the new plant room, the installation and the work that went into transforming the system
