Legionella Checks Template

by Karen Dufty, from the Community

This Legionella checks template guides weekly flushing of taps and toilets and monthly water temperature monitoring to manage Legionella risk. Record sites, dates, and readings, then verify cold water is below 20 C and hot water exceeds 50 C within one minute. Use it to standardize routine water hygiene checks, document compliance, and support safer building operations across locations.

Monthly Hot & Cold Water Checks (Legionella)
Use this checklist to complete monthly hot and cold water temperature checks as part of Legionella risk control. Record temperatures at nearest and furthest outlets, confirm hot water reaches a minimum of 50°C within one minute and cold water is 20°C or below within two minutes, inspect thermostatic mixer valves (TMVs), note system condition, and sign off. Ideal for facility teams in gyms, offices, and other buildings to maintain water hygiene compliance and accurate records.

Weekly Legionella Checks Checklist
Use this weekly Legionella checks checklist to carry out routine water hygiene controls in line with L8 risk assessment measures. Tasks include flushing all taps and showers, recording hot and cold water temperatures, and confirming weekly outlet usage across the site. Target thresholds: cold water below 20°C after 2 minutes of running and hot water above 50°C after 1 minute. Capture any nonconforming items with photos, assign corrective actions, and document site address, dates, locations, and the responsible person’s name. Sections cover downstairs and upstairs outlets, including kitchens, toilets, showers, and a final sign-off with signature to support ongoing building water hygiene compliance.

Monthly Water Checks Register Template
Record monthly water safety data including operating flow temperatures for water heaters, small unvented heaters, and hot water storage vessels. Log temperatures at sentinel outlets and mains supply to keep hot water above 50 C and storage above 60 C while ensuring cold water remains at or below 20 C. Use this register to monitor TMVs, document corrective actions, and support Legionella risk control and compliance across hospitality venues and facilities.

Building Water Temperature Checks
Use this building water temperature checks template to log routine hot and cold water temperatures across outlets such as toilets, kitchens, and cleaning areas. Capture readings after one minute of flow, note locations, dates, and the person conducting checks, and record corrective actions when results fall outside acceptable thresholds. Support Legionella risk management by monitoring sentinel outlets, maintaining consistent records, and standardizing inspections across sites. Attach photos, add notes, and keep an auditable trail to improve compliance and maintenance planning.
