Culture sampling for Legionella remains the only accurate test.
It is the gold standard for legionella testing according to multiple labs.

A2LA Certified for Legionella:

Chemenergy is only water treatment company to partner with a lab that has been accredited by the A2LA for Legionella testing.

Culture sampling:

Culture sampling, a process that requires incubation and a wait of 7 - 10 days for final results, is the only test that identifies Legionella species and serogroups. It is the only test recognized currently for legionella detection in NYS law 77, and NYCDOH mandates for legionella compliance in cooling tower water systems. Testing any other way does not yield accurate results and could result in a mis-detection.

Cooling Tower sampling:

Chemenergy's legionella testing programs ensure total compliance with your local laws. Chemenergy can identify weak or strong sampling points to ensure an accurate test is carried out for your cooling tower water system. Put your sampling and legionella testing needs into the hands of a reputable organization that will ensure water samples are handled correctly and documentation is in order.
