Commercial Legionella Prevention for Cooling Towers in Long Beach

Cooling towers can aerosolize water and, without disciplined control, allow Legionella to proliferate. In Long Beach’s coastal climate, warmer temperatures and year‑round operation increase risk. #1 AC Guys protects your occupants and operations with engineered Legionella prevention designed for commercial facilities that demand uptime, documentation, and measurable results.

Our 6‑Step Legionella Prevention Program

• 1) Assessment & Water Management Plan (ASHRAE 188)
  We map your systems, evaluate risk factors (load, materials, drift, makeup water), and produce a site‑specific Water Management Plan aligned with ASHRAE 188 and CDC guidance.

• 2) Baseline Testing & Validation
  We collect water samples and coordinate certified lab analysis for Legionella, heterotrophic plate count, and key water chemistry. Results inform treatment strategy and KPIs.

• 3) Cleaning, Disinfection & Passivation
  We perform tower cleaning, sediment removal, and hyperhalogenation as needed. Passivation helps protect against corrosion after cleaning or major service.

• 4) Continuous Treatment & Monitoring
  We implement oxidizing/non‑oxidizing biocide programs, biodispersants, scale and corrosion inhibitors, and side‑stream filtration. Automated controllers, sensors, and remote alerts stabilize conditions and reduce manual error.

• 5) Documentation, Training & Audits
  We maintain logs, test records, corrective actions, and service reports; train your staff on routine tasks; and audit performance against objectives.

• 6) Emergency Response
  If results exceed action limits, we activate a documented response protocol—communication, targeted disinfection, retesting, and root‑cause correction.
