Abstract

Hot and cold water services account for the majority of identified cases of legionnaires' disease in the UK. During the last five years alternative strategies such as chlorine dioxide and ionisation have increased in popularity as the building services industry has become increasingly aware that a temperature regime is not always achievable and in some cases not effective in controlling the problem. In 1996 BSRIA started a research project with industry and government to examine the effectiveness of chlorine dioxide on a full size hot and cold water services test rig. This publication describes the results.
