Product information "Water Test Legionella"
A legionella test is compulsory for many apartment buildings. This is because Legionella can cause serious diseases in humans. You can therefore test your water for Legionella too!
Why is a Legionella test useful?
The bacteria can get into the respiratory tract through aerosols (nebulised water), which are produced, for example, when showering. This can cause severe infections of the respiratory tract. With our Legionella test, you can have your water sample tested for dangerous germs quickly and reliably in a specialist laboratory.
What makes legionella so dangerous?
Legionella are among the gram-negative bacteria. They occur preferentially in warm water and can be dangerous for humans through inhalation of legionella-containing aerosols. Aerosols result from the nebulisation of water, for example in:
- Whirlpools
- Showers
- Air conditioners etc.
By inhaling these water droplets, Legionella get into the lungs and can cause severe inflammation there. This inflammation is called legionnaires' disease. Legionnaires' disease is fatal in about 15-20% of cases. It is therefore important to detect legionella contamination at an early stage.
