It is a legal requirement to assess the risk posed by legionella bacteria in all commercial properties. The risk assessment must be “suitable” and “sufficient”. As the complexity of water systems increases, along with the number of outlets, components, and systems, the need for expert external assistance tends to rise.
Researchers are now looking at the crystalline solid form of water from different planets, to understand how planets, satellites and even comets evolved.
