ASSE WATER SAFETY CERTIFIED
At Legionella Specialties, we understand that water safety goes far beyond routine testing and chemical treatment. It is about protecting vulnerable people from serious waterborne diseases. That is why our team is proud to be fully certified under ASSE International Standard 12080, the recognized professional qualification for water safety and management personnel.
​
Our ASSE certified experts are trained to develop robust water management plans that address every aspect of system safety, including environmental testing, system risk assessment, mitigation, remediation, and full compliance with current building water regulations.
​
With Legionella Specialties, you receive a consultative, multi-barrier approach to water safety that is proactively designed to prevent contamination from pathogens such as Legionella pneumophila before it becomes a health risk. Whether you manage a hospital, long term care facility, or any complex building water system, our certification and hands-on expertise ensure the job is handled correctly and responsibly.
Why it Matters
Water safety is not optional in healthcare and long-term care environments. Complex plumbing systems, warm water temperatures, and periods of stagnation create ideal conditions for Legionella and other waterborne pathogens to grow. When water safety programs are incomplete or poorly managed, the result can be patient illness, regulatory citations, reputational damage, and costly corrective action.
​
Certified professionals ensure that facilities meet the highest standards of prevention, documentation, and measurable control. ASSE 12080 certification confirms that the individuals managing your water safety program have been trained to recognize system vulnerabilities, implement effective control measures, and maintain ongoing compliance with Joint Commission, CMS, and ASHRAE expectations.
​
Partnering with Legionella Specialties means your facility is guided by experts who understand both the science and the regulatory requirements behind waterborne pathogen prevention. Our certified team helps safeguard patients, residents, staff, and your organization’s reputation by ensuring your water systems remain safe, monitored, and compliant.
