Complimentary Legionella Risk Assessment with Every EPC
As part of our commitment to providing added value and ensuring full compliance for landlords, every Energy Performance Certificate we issue comes with a complimentary Legionella Risk Assessment (LRA). This assessment is essential for identifying potential risks related to Legionella bacteria, which can cause Legionnaires’ disease—a serious and potentially fatal form of pneumonia contracted through inhalation of contaminated water droplets.
During the survey, we carry out a detailed inspection of all water outlets including taps, showers, hot and cold water tanks, and other water systems to identify any signs of potential risk. This helps landlords fulfill their legal duty of care and maintain a safe environment for tenants. By law, a Legionella Risk Assessment is required every two years for properties with combi boiler systems, and annually for properties with standard system boilers.
By choosing EPC Direct Ltd, you're not only meeting your EPC legal requirements, but also receiving vital additional protection with a free LRA, ensuring your property is safe, compliant, and tenant-ready.
