Developing a Water Management Plan

Worried about Legionella Outbreaks? Partner with ChemTreat to Develop a Water Management Plan

Building water systems have become the subject of continued changes in regulations and best practices in recent years. As building owners and facility managers are challenged to keep up, ChemTreat can be a valued partner in navigating this dynamic environment.

Why is a Water Management Plan Important?

Minimizing the risk of legionellosis associated with building water systems is important for many facilities such as hospitals, hotels, and commercial buildings in meeting water quality safety goals.

The CDC recognizes “many buildings need a water management program to reduce the risk for Legionella growing and spreading within their water system and devices.”*

A well-developed and implemented Water Management Plan can help building owners address Legionella concerns.  

Some states now require Water Management Plans. The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, as well as accrediting organizations, require water management programs for participating healthcare facilities.
