Aspectos a destacar en la nueva norma:

Aspects to be highlighted in the new standard:

.- The Definition of the Plan for the Prevention and Control of the Spread of the Bacterium

.- The taking and transport of samples, microbiological and physiochemical tests, alternative methods to cultivation for the dissemination of legionella, generation of reports.

.- They are considered as risk installations, cold water consumption (AFC), domestic hot water (DHW), cooling towers and evaporative condensers, humidifiers, humidifiers and evaporative coolers, water heated with constant agitation (SPA’S and bathtubs hydromassage), ornamental fountains and urban sprinkler irrigation, nebulizers and others (washing of vehicles …).

.- New protocols for action and disinfection,

.- Requirements for the personnel responsible for the installation, such as adequate maintenance training, technical solvency …

The update of the regulation is positively valued, especially the incorporation of new facilities and the established action protocols. thus providing greater security to citizens since, for the first time, humidifiers used in terraces and bars are included as installations susceptible to control. The towers have always been in the crosshairs of health inspectors, but with the new standard, security is increased. It therefore incorporates an extensive list of facilities in which it is capable of proliferating and dispersing, avoiding the old classification of high or low risk, simplification lacking in scientific rigor.

It also covers all aspects related to prevention and control: design, exploitation, responsibilities, training, technical solvency, prevention, control, revision, disinfection, etc.
