Legionella Test Kit Pricing

Get the only Legionella test kit that comes with expert analysis from a certified engineer. Unlike typical Legionella test kits, Legionella Control Systems provides Legionella test kits paired with expert interpretation, not just lab results. Every package includes testing at a CDC Elite Lab and a detailed review by an ASSE 12080-certified mechanical engineer with expertise in how to mitigate Legionella with plumbing system design and operation.

How much do Legionella test kits cost?

$999 for a 4-pack or $1,499 for a 10-pack.

Both packages include CDC Elite Lab testing and a full review from an ASSE 12080 certified engineer. The difference is just the number of samples. Pick based on the size of your facility.

What comes with each Legionella Test Kit Package?

Test kits, lab testing, and expert ASSE 12080 certified engineer review.

Each package comes with the testing kits, testing at a certified lab, and, critically, a human who actually understands water systems and testing protocols interprets the results for you. An experienced, ASSE 12080 certified engineer will explain what the numbers mean for your facility, flag any risk factors, and tell you whether action is needed. Legionella Control Systems doesn’t just give you data – we provide context and information you need for next steps.

Who reviews the results?

An experienced mechanical engineer certified in ASSE 12080.

An ASSE 12080 certification is a foundation of understanding in how Legionella actually grows, how temperature ranges, stagnant water, biofilm, and water chemistry create risk. Our engineers know the difference between a result that needs immediate action and one that can take a slower approach. We can also tell you what corrective measures make sense for your particular system, rather than a generic checklist.

Should we get the 4-pack or 10-pack?

Get the 4-pack for the smallest facilities, or the 10-pack for slightly larger to medium-sized facilities.

Choose the 4-Pack Test Kit if:

• You have a small office building.
• You have one small hot water loop.
• You might need just 4 samples.

Choose the 10-Pack Test Kit if:

• You have cooling towers.
• You have multiple domestic hot water zones.
• You have distributed branch lines.
• You have areas where water sits.

Some facilities even combine multiple packages. The engineer will review whatever results from samples you send, so pick based on your actual facility layout.

What if we need more than 10 samples?

Purchase more than one pack, or contact us for custom testing plans for larger facilities.

Healthcare systems, hospitality operations, and industrial facilities often need a more comprehensive approach, sometimes testing 20 or 100+ locations, phased over time. Tell us about your facility, and we’ll build a plan that makes sense for your water system and your compliance timeline.

How soon can I get my results?

Get Legionella test results in 7 business days with CDC ELITE Culture testing.

Culture tests generally take 7 business days to return results. At Legionella Control Systems, we understand that getting your results back promptly is imperative when dealing with a possible outbreak, and we get them turned around as fast as possible.

Get Legionella test results in as little as 24 to 48 hours with Quantitative PCR testing.

If more speed is needed, we can use qPCR testing to get your results to you in 24-48 hours, so that you can act faster.  Call us at 888-416-8626 if you need results asap!

Get Legionella Test Results in 25 minutes onsite!

If you don’t have days to wait, get your Legionella test results onsite in 25 minutes with our onsite tests. These onsite tests detect Legionella pneumophila serogroups (1-15), including dangerous Viable but Non-Culturable (VBNC) bacteria in just minutes.  Call us at 888-416-8626  if you need the fastest testing turnaround.

Does Legionella Control Systems just do testing?

No, Legionella Control Systems is a one-stop shop for testing, remediation, secondary disinfection, root cause analysis, risk assessments, and more.

While most labs just do testing, we interpret your results and can help you to develop a remediation plan to get rid of the Legionella and make sure it doesn’t come back.

What does ASSE 12080 mean?

It’s the industry standard for preventing and managing Legionella.

Not all water treaters understand Legionella risk the same way. ASSE 12080 certification means the reviewer has a foundation in the science, conditions, and water temperature ranges that promote growth, why stagnation matters, how biofilm protects the bacteria, and what actually kills Legionella.

Is it required to have a degree in mechanical engineering to review my tests?

No, but it makes a difference.

An engineer with a mechanical engineering degree adds value by interpreting results in the context of mechanical fundamentals. Understanding plumbing layout, fluid dynamics, heat transfer, and system design helps us identify where Legionella risk truly exists and further distinguishes between results that need action and those that don’t.

Legionella Test Kit Pricing FAQ

How much do Legionella test kits cost?

Legionella test kits cost $999 for a 4-pack or $1,499 for a 10-pack. Both packages include CDC Elite Lab testing and a full review from an ASSE 12080 certified engineer.

What is included in each package?

Each package includes test kits, testing at a certified lab, and expert engineer review. An experienced engineer will explain what the numbers mean for your facility, flag any risk factors, and tell you whether action is needed.

What is the difference between the 4-pack and 10-pack?

The difference is the number of samples. The 4-pack is best for small facilities or limited sampling needs. The 10-pack is best for small-to-medium facilities, multiple water zones, or more complex systems.

Should we get the 4-pack or 10-pack?

Choose the 4-pack if you have a small office building, one small hot water loop, or might need just 4 samples. Choose the 10-pack if you have cooling towers, multiple domestic hot water zones, distributed branch lines, or areas where water sits.

Who reviews the results?

The results are reviewed by an experienced mechanical engineer certified in ASSE 12080. The engineer reviews the results in the context of your water system’s actual risk profile.

What does ASSE 12080 mean?

Do I need a mechanical engineer to review my Legionella test results?

No. However, a degreed engineer adds value by interpreting results in the context of mechanical fundamentals. Understanding plumbing layout, fluid dynamics, heat transfer, and system design helps identify where Legionella risk truly exists and distinguish between results that need action and those that don’t.
