Legionella control plans at Pamesa

Nov 9, 2023 | Environmental engineering

In compliance with the regulations established in RD 487/2022, ceramic factories must prioritize the development, implementation and maintenance of effective Legionella control plans. This article aims to highlight the key aspects of the Legionella Control Prevention Plan (LCPP) or, where appropriate, the Legionella Sanitary Plan (LSP), emphasizing the need for customization to suit the idiosyncrasies of each client’s facility.

Development of Legionella Control Plans
The Legionella Control Prevention Plan (LCPP) is designed to establish measures, including risk assessments, monitoring of water systems and preventive actions.

Implementation Strategies
A crucial aspect of compliance involves guiding ceramic factories through the intricate process of plan implementation. Our services include expert advice on adapting facilities to meet the requirements set out in RD 487/2022. This involves a meticulous assessment of existing infrastructure, identification of potential risks and development of tailored strategies to ensure regulatory compliance.

Customization for each customer
Recognizing the diversity of ceramic factories, our approach emphasizes customization. We understand that each facility has unique characteristics and that a one-size-fits-all approach would not be adequate. Our technical office works closely with customers to tailor Legionella control plans, ensuring that they integrate seamlessly into the existing operational framework and meet the stringent standards set by the regulatory framework.

Technical-consultant role in the retrofit process
As part of our comprehensive service, we provide ongoing technical-consultant support throughout the retrofit process. This involves regular communication with our clients, addressing concerns and providing guidance on the ever-changing Legionella control regulations. Our objective is to ensure compliance with this royal decree for ceramic factories, which affects all facilities that use water (both sanitary and industrial) in any sector.

Maintenance of Legionella Control Plans
Compliance is an ongoing commitment, and our services extend to the ongoing maintenance of Legionella Control Plans. This involves regular monitoring, periodic assessments and updates to ensure that plans remain effective in addressing evolving risks.
