Collection of samples
A JR2 Services certified technician visits the facility to take samples in accordance with Standard DR-09-11, Protocole d’échantillonnage de l’eau du circuit des tours de refroidissement pour la recherche des légionelles, published by the Centre d’expertise en analyse environnementale du Québec. The samples are then submitted for analysis to an accredited laboratory. The objective is to determine the concentration of Legionella pneumophila, which causes legionnaires’ disease, as well as the CFU/L concentration.
Rigorous supervision
Samples must be collected at different times to ensure close monitoring and avoid any risk of bacterial spread. Three essential moments:

- At least once every 30 days during the operation period
- Between 2 and 7 days, following a decontamination procedure
