“Legionella” The Silent Threat in Condenser Cooling Systems That Should Not Be Overlooked. Protect Your Facility with OZONE Technology from ECONOWATT
In water-based cooling systems such as cooling towers, chillers, or industrial closed-loop cooling circuits, the environmental conditions often promote the growth of a highly dangerous type of bacteria: Legionella. This silent threat is frequently underestimated by many organizations.
What is Legionella
Legionella is a type of bacteria that thrives in water temperatures between 25 and 45°C, particularly in stagnant or poorly maintained systems. It can enter the human body through inhalation of contaminated water droplets, commonly spread through mist or vapor from cooling towers, showers, fountains, or large-scale plumbing systems in buildings.
Legionnaires’ Disease
A severe form of pneumonia that begins with flu-like symptoms and can escalate quickly. It can be fatal if left untreated, especially in the elderly or those with weakened immune systems.
Gastrointestinal Symptoms
Including abdominal pain, nausea, and acute diarrhea.
Common Sources of Legionella Contamination
Cooling towers
Open water tanks or stagnant water systems
Internal piping networks in large buildings
Hotels, hospitals, office complexes, and industrial plants Poorly maintained systems or a lack of continuous disinfection pose a high risk for Legionella proliferation.
ECONOWATT has developed an innovative OZONE technology, a highly effective oxidizing agent capable of eliminating Legionella without relying on hazardous chemicals or leaving harmful residues in the system.
Why Choose OZONE
Rapid action destroys bacterial cell walls at the molecular level
Leaves no residue and naturally decomposes into oxygen
Safe for piping infrastructure and the environment
Reduces reliance on chlorine and other chemical disinfectants
OZONE is the ideal solution for organizations committed to ESG standards, Green Building compliance, and proactive safety management in operations.
Act Before the Problem Strikes
Installing an ozone-based disinfection system from ECONOWATT is a worthwhile and sustainable investment. It ensures employee safety, compliance with environmental regulations, and minimizes the risk of business disruptions.
