BG29 (Pre-Commission Cleaning of Pipework Systems) sets out best practice for cleaning commercial heating and cooling pipework before it is handed over. When new systems are installed, they contain: Mill scale from steel pipework Jointing compounds and flux residues Installation debris Construction dust and particulates If not properly removed, these contaminants: Block strainers and control… Read more »

Thermostatic Mixing Valves (TMVs) play a critical role in controlling water temperature and reducing the risk of scalding in both domestic and commercial buildings. In higher-risk environments such as healthcare, care homes and education settings, correct valve selection, installation and ongoing maintenance is not just best practice – it is a legal and moral responsibility….

Passing TMVs create the exact conditions Legionella bacteria thrive in. The combined effects include: Once temperature control is lost, biofilm rapidly develops on internal pipe surfaces. Biofilm acts as: As biofilm thickens, it further restricts flow, worsening stagnation and creating a self-reinforcing cycle that accelerates colonisation. In many investigations of persistent Legionella positives, passing TMVs… Read more »
