WATER MANAGEMENT PLANS
Custom-built, R3-compliant plans tailored to your building’s systems, keeping you ahead of Joint Commission and CMS regulations.
Water Management Plans (WMPs)
​
Compliance-Driven. Risk-Focused. Built to Protect.
A Water Management Plan is more than a box to check—it’s your facility’s frontline defense against Legionella and other deadly waterborne pathogens. At Legionella Specialties, we create custom R3-compliant Water Management Plans that go beyond templates and guidelines to address your building’s specific vulnerabilities.
​
Why You Need a WMP
​
New standards from The Joint Commission and CMS now require healthcare and long-term care facilities to have documented water safety protocols in place. Failure to comply isn’t just a regulatory risk—it’s a threat to lives and reputations.
Whether you're preparing for an inspection, responding to a citation, or simply doing the right thing, our WMPs are engineered to help you:
​
-
Stay compliant with ASHRAE 12-2020 and R3 guidelines
-
Identify and mitigate high-risk areas in your water system
-
Outline clear roles, responsibilities, and response procedures
-
Maintain documentation for surveys and audits

What’s Included in Your Plan
​
Every Legionella Specialties Water Management Plan includes:
​
