Mechanical Remedial Works
Legionella Compliance Repairs, Plumbing Modifications & System Improvements
Effective mechanical remedial works are essential for maintaining safe, compliant water systems and addressing issues identified during a legionella risk assessment or routine water hygiene monitoring.
At KWS Ltd, we provide a practical and responsive mechanical remedial service across the UK, carrying out essential plumbing and system modifications to support compliance with HSE ACoP L8, HSG274 and HTM 04-01.
What Are Mechanical Remedial Works?
Mechanical remedial works involve making physical improvements or corrections to water systems to reduce the risk of legionella bacteria growth and ensure systems operate effectively.
These works are typically identified through:
- Legionella risk assessments
- Monitoring failures or non-compliance
- System design or installation issues
Our approach is focused on delivering targeted, necessary remedials without overcomplicating or recommending unnecessary upgrades.
Typical Remedial Works We Carry Out
We undertake a wide range of legionella remedial works and plumbing modifications, including the removal of redundant pipework and dead legs, pipework alterations to improve flow and reduce stagnation, and installation or replacement of valves, including TMVs (thermostatic mixing valves).
We also carry out upgrades to improve temperature control, modifications to cold water storage tanks, and general system improvements identified as part of compliance works. All works are completed with a clear understanding of how they impact legionella control and ongoing monitoring requirements.
Compliance & Standards
All mechanical remedial works are carried out in accordance with relevant guidance and standards, including:
- HSE ACoP L8 and HSG274
- HTM 04-01 (for healthcare environments)
