Legionella Services
Legionella Services by ARA Environmental, legionella is the bacteria responsible for legionnaires disease, an uncommon but potentially fatal lung infection. Legionnaires disease is contracted through exposure to and inhalation of tiny water droplets and vapour from water systems containing high levels of the legionella bacteria. The bacteria thrives in warm and hot water, however, in warmer climates, even cold water systems may reach temperatures sufficient for legionella to grow.
