Legionella: a danger spot in water systems – but not with Beneflow

Cleaner pipes, cleaner water - fight legionella permanently

The water circulation system in a building works like the blood circulation in a human being. When the system becomes dirty and the flow deteriorates, the dangers start to build up – literally. One of them is legionella, an invisible threat that can cause serious health problems and even compromise the whole building.

Legionella does not belong in your property’s plumbing – Beneflow effectively eliminates legionella.

Bacteria develop precipitates and biofilm in the plumbing, where they multiply and spread to the water and air.

What is legionella - and why does it matter?

Legionella is a bacterium that thrives in warm water (25 to 50 degrees Celsius). When the bacteria are allowed to spread in domestic water systems, hot water tanks or cooling systems, for example, they can be airborne and enter the respiratory tract.

This can cause legionellosis, a serious form of pneumonia. Hospitalised cases occur every year and the property owner can be responsible for the consequences – especially if systems have not been properly maintained or the property owner has been aware of legionella.

Ships and large buildings - legionella risk areas

Legionella is not looking at the building. It spreads effectively in hotels, hospitals, apartment blocks and industrial buildings – but ships are particularly at risk, where:

The same air and water circulate in a closed space.
Cooling and heating systems also work as part of the air conditioning system.
Legionella can spread rapidly throughout a ship through the air conditioning.

Several passenger ships have had to be quarantined due to a legionella outbreak. The stoppage is costly, and the damage to their reputation even more so.
