Legionnaires'guide

Despite the fact that it was first identified as long ago as 1976, there are still several hundred occurrences of Legionnaires' disease in the UK every year, some of them fatal. To put the disease into perspective, heat transfer specialist, Alfa Laval, has produced a new edition of its 'Guide To' range of pocket publications dealing specifically with Legionnaire's disease.

The Guide to Legionnaires'Disease covers the disease's history, how it occurs and the best methods currently available to prevent its development.

It will be of particular interest to building owners, contractors and even suppliers of building materials and equipment; there is a wide range of people - from designers to manufacturers - who are subject to the legislation covering control of Legionnaires' in the workplace.
