Cooling Towers and Evaporative Condensers
Introduction
 |
All
premises where cooling towers and evaporative condensers are
situated must register with the local authority under The
Notification of Cooling Towers and Evaporative Condensers
Regulations 1992. |
The prime purpose of this is to identify potential areas that could
give rise to the spread of infectious disease e.g. legionella and
to ensure preventative measures are taken to eliminate the risk of
such infection arising to employees and the public.
Given the right set of circumstances legionella can multiply and
cause infection in people who inhale airborne water droplets
containing the bacteria.
For this reason all cooling towers and evaporative condensers in
premises within the Wyre Forest district must be registered with
Wyre Forest District Council, Environmental Health section.
