Legionella contamination in your water systems can pose a serious risk to individuals, with serious and potentially fatal respiratory illnesses. The failure to identify and manage the risks posed by Legionella can create significant regulatory and reputational consequences for organisations and their leaders. That’s why legionella risk assessments are essential for any commercial or public building with a water system.

Zeta are accredited by the Legionella Control Association and delivers BS 8580-1 compliant legionella risk assessments. Our consultants provide expert guidance, system mapping, and precise sampling, with testing conducted through UKAS-accredited laboratories to ensure reliable, actionable results.

If you require a professional, fully compliant assessment, contact Zeta today. We’ll help you protect your people and your property from avoidable risk.

Expert-Led Compliance Aligned with UK Regulations

Since 1997, Zeta has been a trusted provider of legionella risk assessments across multiple sectors. Our specialists bring deep technical expertise to every site, helping clients not only meet legal obligations but maintain safe, well-managed systems.

Every risk assessment follows a structured methodology:

  • Define and scope the site requirements
  • Conduct physical inspections and validate system schematics
  • Review historic data, logbooks, and management records
  • Highlight areas of concern and work with clients to build actionable plans

We don’t just assess—we advise, support, and help you plan strategically to ensure long-term compliance.

Our Legionella Risk Assessment Reports

As a leading legionella risk assessment company, Zeta has developed a practical, colour-coded risk rating system to help property owners prioritise remedial action and implement controls:

Red – High Risk – Immediate action required

Yellow – Moderate Risk– Warning, cause for concern

Blue – Minor Risk– Improvement required

Our risk assessment framework aligns directly with:

  • HSG274 Part 1 – Evaporative Cooling Systems
  • HSG274 Part 2 – Hot and Cold Water Systems
  • HSG274 Part 3 – Other Risk Systems

This gives you a clear roadmap to compliance, whether you manage a commercial property, a school, a healthcare site, or an industrial facility.
