If you manage a property or business in Birmingham, it’s your legal obligation to make sure your water systems are safe from legionella bacteria. At Clean Air UK, we provide professional legionella risk assessments in Birmingham and across the West Midlands, helping you stay compliant, prevent illness, and protect the people who use your building.
Our legionella control services are carried out by qualified engineers who specialise in identifying, managing, and reducing the risk of legionella in hot and cold water systems — including cold water tanks, spa pools, cooling towers, and showers.
Legionella bacteria can develop in water systems that aren’t properly maintained, especially when water temperatures sit between 20°C and 45°C — the right conditions for growth. When water droplets containing the bacteria are inhaled, they can cause Legionnaires’ disease, a potentially fatal form of pneumonia.
A legionella risk assessment is a legal requirement under the Health and Safety at Work Act and related UK safety regulations. Failure to carry one out or act on the findings can lead to serious consequences, both for health and compliance.
A complete legionella risk assessment includes assessing every part of your water system to identify potential sources of bacteria growth and ways to minimise risk.
Our assessment process typically includes:
Landlords, property managers, business owners, and anyone responsible for maintaining a water system has a legal duty to assess and control the risk of legionella.
This includes:
Whether you manage a single property or multiple premises, we ensure each site complies with UK health and safety law and remains safe for occupants.
Ignoring legionella control responsibilities can have serious consequences. Beyond the obvious health risks, such as Legionnaires’ disease, non-compliance can lead to enforcement action, fines, and damage to your reputation.
The Health and Safety Executive (HSE) expects all duty holders to show they’ve taken the right precautions. Our reports, inspection data, and monitoring records give you the documentation needed to demonstrate full compliance.
We don’t just assess — we help you stay protected long term. Our legionella control services include:
Our Birmingham-based team provides a reliable, efficient service with minimal disruption to your daily operations.

Have used Cleanair before to do our kitchen deep clean and were very impressed with their work so asked them to replace our duct for the kitchen extraction. Arrived on time, done the work quickly and efficiently which allowed our kitchen team to carry on with their prep work. I highly recommend them.
Looking for companies for the cleaning and servicing of my kitchen canopy and ducts I found, via Google, overpriced local traders. I am so glad I looked on the BESA website and came across Clean Air Ltd. The lads you sent round were polite and did a good job. I was so confident in your pricing and work I recommended Clean Air to my church for their kitchen work. God Bless you all.
A huge thank you to the staff at CleanAir UK who have done the most fantastic job cleaning our kitchen this year. They were prompt, polite, helpful, friendly and amazingly efficient. The kitchen is sparkling and we are thrilled with the results. We will definitely be asking them back next year…
We got VIP treatment as a local business – all queries were answered professionally and the work itself was fast and clean – no mess left on site. A refreshing attitude! Thanks to the team!
