It
is well known that domestic hot water systems are among one of the most
dangerous environments when dealing with Legionella bacteria
and associates Legionnaires’ disease.
The Bad news… a record number of
recorded Legionella cases in 2003 where associated to healthcare
facilities, hotels and even office buildings.
The Good news… AquaLyse®
copper-silver ion generators have proven to drastically reduce the risk
of nosocomial Legionella in these types of facilities.
Since
the discovery of Legionella in 1976, many theories and studies
have been conducted in order to determine the best course of action
when dealing with Legionella control and prevention in a properly
designed water treatment program.
Many of these studies have demonstrated
that metallic copper and silver ionisation (the introduction of
positively charged copper and silver ions into a domestic hot water
system) is an effective and preventative method in order to control
and kill Legionella pneumophila. (The positive ions are
attracted to the negatively charged microorganisms and disrupt cellular
respiration…death soon follows)
Where other technologies have shown serious
disadvantages and failures, AquaLyse®
Cu-Ag Ion Generators have shown measurable results, ease of usage, low
maintenance, safety and affordability. AquaLyse®
will treat all of your domestic water system…even low-flow distal
points and dead leg areas.
With a AquaLyse®
Ion generator, domestic hot water systems can easily be managed and
maintained without any major intervention on behalf on the building
engineer. Once our system installed, all you have to do is relax and
let it do it’s own work.
One major question is usually asked when we present our
technology: “Why do I need this technology if we follow current
set guidelines on domestic hot water Legionella control?”
The answer is quite simple. “It is difficult to guarantee proper
temperature in all of a domestic hot water system in order to control
Legionella…including distal low-flow points” You will have
hot spots, you will have cold spots and the results can lead to a Legionella
outbreak when you least expect it.
Some also believe that chlorine treated water will control
against Legionella. This is simply a short-term solution to a long-standing
problem. If your building is over 7 years old, you most likely have
the presence of Biofilm in your water system (Gunk or Sludge). Legionella
colonisation is found within the Biofilm where it hides from chlorine
and other water treatment techniques like thermal eradication. The good
news is that where others have failed, AquaLyse®
Copper Silver Ion Generator have proven to be successful. Successful
in the control and treatment of nosocomial related Legionella in domestic
hot water systems found in: healthcare facilities, hotels, office buildings
and more.
In the end, we deliver reliable technology that will give you peace
of mind in the quality of domestic hot water delivered when dealing
against Legionella and other forms of waterborne microorganisms. We
guarantee it or your money back!
