Maintaining safe, compliant water systems is a critical responsibility for commercial property owners and therefore a crucial part of facility management.
Poorly managed water systems can create conditions that encourage the growth of harmful bacteria, including Legionella, while also impacting water quality, system efficiency and the wellbeing of those who occupy the premises.
Kimera FM provides comprehensive water hygiene services designed to ensure your business or organisation manages risks and meet the relevant legal obligations. We ensuring all water systems are not only compliant with the Approved Code of Practice (ACOP L8), Legionella Control Association (LCA), HSG274 and all regulatory standards but also optimised for performance and safety.
Our experienced engineers carry out planned servicing and monitoring of both hot and cold water systems across a wide range of commercial environments, large and small, including offices, healthcare facilities, hospitality venues, educational establishments, leisure centres, and industrial sites.
Regular inspections and servicing ensure that water temperatures remain within recommended parameters, storage tanks and distribution systems are functioning correctly, and potential issues are identified before they become costly problems.
We work closely with clients to develop proactive maintenance programmes that support compliance with current health and safety guidance while helping to protect building occupants and visitors.
Regular water testing is one of the most effective ways to verify the condition of a water system and identify potential contamination before it poses a risk to building users.
We have the capability to provide a range of water sampling and microbiological analysis services that help organisations monitor water quality and demonstrate ongoing compliance with industry guidance.
Our testing services can identify the presence of bacteria and other microbiological concerns within commercial water systems, allowing corrective action to be taken quickly where necessary. We arrange laboratory analysis and provide clear reporting, enabling those responsible for commercial premises to make informed decisions regarding the management of their water systems.
Where contamination, stagnation or system deterioration is detected, we carry out professional disinfection and chemical cleaning of water systems.
These services are often required following remedial works, changes in occupancy levels, prolonged shutdowns or where water quality issues have been detected. Thorough cleaning and disinfection help remove harmful bacteria, biofilm, scale and other contaminants that can compromise system performance and safety.
By combining testing, analysis and remedial treatment services, we provide a complete approach to water hygiene management. Our aim is to help clients maintain safe, clean water systems, minimise disruption to building operations and ensure that water quality standards are consistently achieved throughout the year.
Many commercial buildings rely on specialist systems that require ongoing monitoring, maintenance and treatment to ensure they operate safely and efficiently.
Kimera FM provides a range of specialist water treatment services tailored to the needs of modern commercial facilities, for example:
Our engineers carry out the inspection, testing and servicing of thermostatic mixing valves (TMVs) and associated taps to ensure water temperatures are correctly controlled. TMVs play an important role in reducing the risk of scalding while also supporting water hygiene objectives, particularly within healthcare, education and care environments where vulnerable users may be present.
We also provide swimming pool water testing and monitoring services, helping operators maintain safe water quality, balanced chemical levels and compliance with relevant standards. Regular testing supports the health and safety of users while helping to prevent operational issues and costly closures.
For heating and cooling systems, our closed system analysis and dosing services help protect valuable plant and equipment. Through water sampling and system analysis, we can identify corrosion, scale formation and bacterial activity that may affect performance. Appropriate chemical dosing treatments are then applied to improve system efficiency, extend equipment lifespan and reduce maintenance costs.
Together, these specialist services help organisations protect assets, maintain compliance and ensure the safe operation of critical water systems across their facilities.
