Legionella risk assessments for letting agents
Managed portfolios rarely fail on intent. They fail because the Legionella record for each property was made a different way, by a different person, and the evidence behind it is somewhere else. LegionellaWise gives every property manager the same guided workflow and leaves one consistent, structured record per property.

- The outcome up front: risk outcome, the reasons behind it and the suggested review date.
- Every outlet room by room, including outlets excluded from measurement and why.
- Hot, cold and blended temperature readings with the run time recorded for each.
- Findings with the recommended actions written against the outlet they relate to.
- Photo evidence, the signed declaration, the method, limitations and version stamps.
Who this is for
Agents managing simple domestic rental properties — flats and houses on mains-fed systems, with or without a hot water cylinder — where the practical need is a consistent, evidence-backed assessment on every property and a clear escalation route for the ones that are not simple.
It is not a replacement for a competent water hygiene contractor on complex systems, and it does not pretend that a single portfolio-wide document satisfies a property-specific duty.
What usually goes wrong across a managed portfolio
Records that differ from property to property
One property has a PDF from a contractor, another a photo of a handwritten form, a third nothing anyone can find. When a landlord or a tenant asks, the answer depends on who last touched the file.
Evidence separated from the assessment
Temperature readings noted in a message thread and photos left on a phone are hard to tie back to the outlet they came from months later.
Reviews that quietly lapse
Nothing triggers a look at a property after a void, a cylinder change or a long empty spell, so assessments age silently across the portfolio.
Handover risk
When a property manager leaves, the reasoning behind an assessment leaves with them unless it was written down at the time.
What LegionellaWise gives you
- A shared workspace, so every property manager works to the same prompts and the same completeness checks
- One property register with the water system, rooms and every outlet recorded per property
- Guided hot and cold observations recorded against the named outlet, with the reading date
- Photo evidence attached to the observation or finding it supports, stored privately
- Findings and remedial actions with an owner and a completion date, visible across the portfolio
- Versioned Legionella risk assessment reports with a verification reference you can share with a landlord or tenant
- Review reminders at 30 days, 7 days and on the day, per property
- A suitability check that flags properties which should go to a competent specialist rather than be self-assessed
How a portfolio rollout works
- 1
Add the managed properties
Create the property register first, with the water system recorded per property. This is what makes each later assessment specific rather than generic.
- 2
Run the suitability check on anything unusual
Separate the simple domestic stock from the properties that need a specialist before anyone starts assessing.
- 3
Assess property by property on site
The mobile workflow walks the property manager through the system, the rooms and every outlet, with guided observations and photo evidence captured as they go.
- 4
Finalise and share
Completeness checks and a competence declaration must pass, then the report is produced with a verification reference you can pass to the landlord.
- 5
Work the actions and the review dates
Remedial actions are tracked with owners, and review reminders land before each property falls due.
Questions agents ask
Whose duty is it — the landlord's or ours?
The duty sits with whoever controls the premises. Where a managing agent takes on that control under the management agreement, responsibility for assessing and controlling the risk can sit with the agent. Check what your agreements actually say, property by property, because the wording varies.
Can several property managers work in the same account?
Yes. Properties, assessments, evidence and actions live in a shared workspace, and each assessment records who carried it out and declared their competence.
Can we share a report with a landlord or a tenant without giving them an account?
Yes. Finalised reports can be shared through a link, and the report carries a reference that can be checked on the public verification page.
What about properties that are too complex to self-assess?
The suitability check is designed to surface those early. Where a property has stored hot water in a larger system, a spa or pool, cooling equipment, vulnerable occupants or anything unusual, the honest answer is to instruct a competent specialist — and the record should say so.
Does it replace a specialist water hygiene contractor?
No. It gives you a consistent record for the simple domestic systems that make up most managed stock, and a clear signal about which properties need specialist involvement.
