Legionella bacteria can develop in water systems and pose a serious risk of Legionnaires’ disease. UK health and safety law requires businesses, landlords, and organisations to manage this risk. Our professional Legionnaires testing service across the UK helps you stay compliant and safeguard the health of staff, tenants, and visitors.
Legionnaires testing, also known as Legionella testing, involves sampling water from your system to check for the presence of Legionella bacteria. Accredited laboratories then analyse the samples, providing clear results you can trust.
Testing is an important part of ongoing Legionella risk management, especially in settings such as offices, care homes, schools, leisure centres, and rental properties.
UK guidance states that Legionella testing is necessary in certain situations:
In healthcare and residential care settings.
Where water systems are complex or high-risk.
If control measures, such as temperature checks, cannot be guaranteed.
After system changes, refurbishment, or contamination incidents.
Even when not legally required, many duty holders choose regular testing as part of a robust water safety plan. It provides peace of mind, reassurance for occupants, and evidence for compliance checks.
By arranging professional testing, you:
Reduce the risk of Legionnaires’ disease outbreaks.
Demonstrate compliance with the Health and Safety Executive’s (HSE) Approved Code of Practice (ACOP L8).
Identify problems early, before they affect occupants.
Protect your organisation from potential legal and financial consequences.
Nationwide Coverage – Testing available anywhere in the UK.
Accredited Labs – Reliable, accurate analysis of water samples.
Expert Advice – Clear reports with practical recommendations.
Flexible Scheduling – Minimal disruption to your business or property.
If you are a landlord, facilities manager, or business owner, Legionella compliance is not optional—it’s a legal responsibility. Our nationwide Legionnaires testing service makes it simple, affordable, and stress-free. Get in touch today to arrange testing at your property and ensure you’re meeting your duties while protecting the people who rely on your water systems.

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!
