A practical seasonal checklist for supported housing providers
As temperatures rise and water systems sit unused over winter, spring becomes one of the most important times of year to review your legionella control measures.
For supported housing providers, the risks go beyond compliance paperwork. Vulnerable residents, ageing infrastructure and inconsistent water usage can all increase the likelihood of issues developing unnoticed.
This free Spring Legionella Checklist has been designed to help providers carry out a practical seasonal review of their properties, systems and responsibilities.
Inside, you’ll find guidance on:
- Reviewing little-used outlets and stagnant water risks
- Checking water temperatures and storage conditions
- Identifying signs of poor flushing routines or system neglect
- Spotting vulnerable areas across supported accommodation settings
- Understanding where responsibility sits between provider, landlord and contractor
- Keeping records up to date ahead of inspections or audits
Whether you manage a handful of schemes or a large supported housing portfolio, the checklist is designed to help you stay proactive rather than reactive.
Because legionella compliance shouldn’t start when there’s already a problem.
