| Written Scheme of Precautions Describes Who does what Legionnaires related tasks and at what frequency. | |
| How oxidising biocides kill a bacteria like legionella by denaturing proteins in the cell wall. | |

Amoeba Protozoa Plays an important part in the life cycle of the Legionella Bacterium |
| Graph demonstrates that HOCL and HOBR become less effective as the pH of the water increases. Chlorine Dioxide remains effective even at pH 10 | |

|
Hydrogen Peroxide an oxidising biocide that produces Oxygen and water when it reacts with bacteria. |
| A petri dish for developing Legionella Black because of the ingredients in the culture media. | |
| System Schematic | Required to enable a suitable and sufficient Risk Assessment, Can be hand drawn or computer generated |
| Legionella Training | Training is required for all those involved in the control of the Legionella risk in the premises water systems. |
| Risk Assessment Rating System | Can be colour coded or numerical but must be clearly understood and unambiguous. |
| Chlorine an oxidising biocide has universal use in potable water disinfection. Residual range typically 0.1 ppm - 0.5 ppm | |

Leads to reduced water flow, stagnation of water and provides Iron to the Legionella bacterium, one of its required nutrients. |
| Design Features of a Cold Water Tank Insulated Screened from vermin and insects Well fitting lid Expansion return routed to a tundish Inlet and outlet diametrically apposed | |

| Legionella is not contagious person to person. A person gets infected by breathing in an aerosol from a contaminated water source. | |

Ultra Violet Light Kills Bacteria by damaging DNA Not very effective against estblished biofilms Better in new or virgin water systems |
| Biofilm | A home and nutrient source for Amoeba and water borne pathogens including Legionella. Very difficult to kill biofilms either with high water temperature or oxidising biocides. |
| Flexible Hoses If they contain EPDM will present a risk due to internal cavities. These present areas for bacteria to proliferate | |
