EndoSan Silver peroxide  is an eco-friendly, multi-component, oxidising biocide.  A highly effective sanitising solution is formed utilising a stable combination of Hydrogen Peroxide and Silver ions.  This combination is so effective that it creates a biocide 20 times more powerful than that of hydrogen peroxide.  Other benefits include:-

• It is odourless
• It will not alter the taste, smell or colour of food
• It is effective in water temperatures ranging from 0 to 95°C
• No neutralisation is required after disinfection
• It is biodegradable

• Weekly flushing of little used outlets
• Monthly temperature test results of representative outlets
• Quarterly descaling of shower heads and spray taps
• 6 monthly bacteria sampling of water storage tanks
• 6 monthly water storage tank inspection
• Annual inspection of calorifiers
• 24 monthly legionella risk assessment review
• A Water Hygiene Consultant will visit the site at regular intervals to ensure that risks are kept under control
• Temperatures and conditions will be compared with parameters detailed in ACOP L8

TMV or Thermostatic Mixer Valve is a device that is designed to control water temperature for showers, baths and outlets. These devices require servicing on a regular bases in order for them to function correctly. We offer servicing and installation of both type 2 and type 3 TMV's. To comply with Legionella prevention guidance; water must be stored at no less than 60 degrees and distributed at no less than 50 degrees, however where the risk of scalding has been identified . TMV's are fitted to regulate the temperature at the outlets.

Here at Pure Clear Water we offer bacteria sampling using a high performance hand held ATP meter. It is designed for the rapid testing and detection of contamination in water and on surfaces caused by unwanted bacteria, allergens and food residue.

Our hand held ATP meter is designed using state-of-the-art electronics making it simple and easy to use. It offers incredible sensitivity, much improved functionality and excellent value for money and is ideal for use in any application where the rapid detection of contamination in water or on surfaces is critical. We can also offer a comprehensive suite of laboratory tests including UKAS-accredited legionella analysis, sampling and water quality tests for landlords, building owners and operators, facilities managers, duty holders and the responsible person. Which would give you a comprehensive result of exactly what is or isn't n your water system.

An inspection for scale and sediment in the cistern must be carried out on an annual basis or where the water quality seems to be cloudy. The sedimentation, scale etc. will settle down in the calorifiers and will provide an environment for Legionella growth, therefore the cleaning and disinfection of this storage vessel must be carried out. If there is no inspection hatch available, the system must be flushed thoroughly on regular intervals to avoid the formation of scale and debris in the base of the storage vessel.

For calorifiers with no access hatch a sample of drain water should be taken for bacteria sampling and its condition noted.
