Legionella Bacteria Management

Legionella bacteria are found naturally in the environment in low concentrations.  They begin to pose a health risk in indoor environments when warm, static conditions allow them to amplify, posing a significant health threat if not properly addressed.  The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reports that nearly 25,000 cases of Legionnaires’ disease occur every year in the United States.  Colden professionals work to anticipate, recognize and control the growth of Legionella bacteria in work and living environments including industrial cooling towers, hospitals and long term care settings.
