šŸ› Why is Shower Head Cleaning and Disinfection So Important?


Check out these photos captured by our technicians just this week! šŸ“ø


Here's why it matters:


🚿 Shower heads generate aerosols—tiny water droplets that are dispersed into the air and directly over people.


šŸŒ¬ļø If these droplets contain Legionella bacteria, they can be inhaled, potentially causing serious health risks, including Legionnaires' disease.


šŸ’” Why take the risk?


Regular cleaning and disinfection of shower heads (at least quarterly or more often if fouling is visible) can significantly reduce this risk and keep you compliant with HSE ACOP L8 and HSG 274 Part B guidance.


šŸ”¹ At Pure Air & Water Compliance Services, our friendly, expert team is ready to support all your Legionella control needs—keeping you safe, compliant, and confident.
