Hidden risks, high stakes

Waterborne pathogens spread invisibly.

Small control gaps create safety risks, unplanned downtime, and compliance failures that can spiral into costly crises for your facility.

Legionellosis Risk

Meeting ASHRAE 188 requirements is a complex and ongoing process. Without a dedicated water management program, gaps invite outbreaks that jeopardize safety, disrupt operations, and damage trust.

Compliance Pressure

AAMI ST108 and other evolving standards require costly system upgrades and strict monitoring. Failing to meet requirements exposes facilities to violations, fines, or forced shutdowns.

Water Variability

Daily changes in water quality disrupt process performance, biofilm control, and system reliability. Contaminants like iron or sediments encourage microbial growth and weaken disinfection.

Operational Impact

Whether in healthcare, manufacturing, or commercial facilities, poor water quality can trigger equipment malfunctions, infections, or toxic residues. Failures erode credibility, increase costs, and undermine confidence in facility management.

Stop outbreaks before they start

Every facility water system carries the risk of pathogen growth. Warm, stagnant conditions in tanks, piping, and devices allow Legionella and other bacteria to multiply. Once levels climb, they can move through the system, threatening safety, disrupting operations, and putting compliance at risk.

For the people responsible, the risk isn’t abstract. An outbreak can mean negative headlines, regulatory fines, or even “career-ending” consequences. It can compromise worker health, damage reputation, and force costly shutdowns. Even without a crisis, leaders live with constant pressure, wondering if testing is sufficient, if the next audit will reveal gaps, or if unseen risks are quietly building.

CRB Water removes the uncertainty.

Our certified experts build water management programs aligned with ASHRAE 188, AAMI ST108, and other industry standards, integrate targeted testing, and apply advanced disinfection. Whether it’s protecting people, safeguarding production lines, or ensuring building safety, our proactive monitoring and rapid response protocols deliver compliance and peace of mind.

What we do

Comprehensive Legionella & Waterborne Pathogen protection

From proactive risk assessments to rapid emergency response, we deliver end-to-end pathogen control tailored to your facility’s water systems and compliance requirements.

Water Management Programs

Build compliance into daily practice

We develop ASHRAE 188 and ST108-compliant programs that map your systems, define control measures, and document actions. These living programs help facilities across industries prevent outbreaks, stay audit-ready, and maintain safe, consistent operations.

Site surveys and flow diagrams
Hazard analysis and control points
Verification and documentation tools

Water Testing & Monitoring

Verify performance where it matters

Testing provides the proof regulators demand and teams need to act. We combine certified lab analysis with on-site monitoring of oxidants, pH, and conductivity to give real-time assurance. Regular sampling confirms programs are working and flags problems before they spread.
