Cooling towers
Annually, the audit and inspection of Wet Cooling Towers
constitutes one of the major pro-active elements of our work in
order to prevent the spread of Legionella sp. bacteria,
the cause of Legionnaires Disease. Around 160 sites are audited
each year with the frequency of each audit based upon a national
risk rating scheme which takes into account how those responsible
are managing health & safety risks and their previous
performance.
The Department of Markets and Consumer
Protection maintains a public register of all cooling towers
registered within the City of London. To obtain a copy of
this register please email
