Rapid Legionella Testing

If you are concerned with the quality of your water and would like rapid peace of mind, GMS have the solution. We can provide rapid legionella tests for you or your own staff to apply yourself, or we can attend site and apply the tests for you.

Results can be provided within 25 minutes for most applications. Swab testing takes up to 35 minutes.

Compare this to qPCR 48 hours or culture 10 days. You may not have that amount of time to wait if you want to open a building or recommission a water system.
