Hygiene
IMPORTANT
:
Refer to local Health and Safety regulation and codes on the control of Legionellosis in water systems. In the
absence of such, ASHREA guideline 12-2000 does provide recommendations.
If not adequately maintained, water systems can support the growth of micro-organisms including the bacterium
that causes Legionnaires’ disease.
SKV has been designed to reduce as much as possible any possible risk of legionellosis growth. Users also share
the responsibility in reducing the risk of legionellosis; users are required to:
Conduct a risk assessment of the complete water system.
Implement proper control of the water system.
Connect SKV to a clean and chlorinated water supply main.
Avoid stagnant water.
Avoid water temperatures that increase risk of Legionella growth.
Clean and disinfect the system regularly, refer to service section of the present Installation
Instructions and User Manual.
WARNING:
Risk of Legionnaires’ disease which can be fatal. SKV Evaporative Cooling Humidifier
must be installed, operated and serviced in accordance with this Installation Instructions and User
Manual.
WARNING
: In the event that the SKV Evaporative Cooling Humidifier is turned off for prolonged
periods (more than 24 hours), ensure that any water storage tanks and pipe-work supplying the unit
are drained, unless they supply other systems which ensure a regular renewal of water in the
system. Failure to do so may result in stagnation of the water and contamination that might cause
Legionnaires' disease, which can be fatal.
It is the responsibility of the person on whom the statutory responsibility falls to determine all control and
preventative measures outlined in this manual.
