Are POU Filters Right for Your Facility?

Point-of-Use (POU) Legionella control involves filters at faucets and showers, as well as inline near the fixture. These filters remove bacteria at the last point before water use and are quick and effective for an immediate increase in safety during outbreaks. They require different levels of replacement and can be an ongoing cost if used for long-term mitigation.

Legionella Control Systems offers impartial analysis, comparing POU with alternative solutions like Point of Entry (POE) and multi-barrier treatments for optimal, cost-effective Legionella control tailored to your facility. Learn if Point of Use is the best approach for your facility.

Is Point of Use (POU) Legionella Control Right for Your Facility?

Secondary disinfection (also sometimes referred to as supplemental disinfection) is the implementation of additional water treatment methods to control waterborne pathogens beyond standard municipal treatment.

This is especially critical in controlling Legionella because the level of disinfectant is a risk factor for Legionella. Legionella is the bacteria responsible for Legionnaires’ disease cases

Effective secondary disinfection strategies must address biofilms, complex plumbing systems, and specific water chemistry challenges. Learn about secondary disinfection and supplemental disinfection methods.

How Does Secondary Disinfection Help You?

Legionnaires cases are on the rise – up 550% over the last 5 years. 9 out of 10 outbreaks can be prevented by developing a water management plan.
