CTS Water Microbiology provides BSRIA water testing and analysis services from our laboratory in Leicester, helping clients control and monitor chemical and microbiological levels in closed heating and cooling systems.
Our BSRIA Water Testing Services
The Building Services Research and Information Association (BSRIA) guidance covers the analysis of closed water systems. It was introduced to reduce the potential buildup of scale, corrosion, and bacterial growth – helping to prevent various contaminants from blocking up pipes and plates. This is key to ensuring the efficiency and effectiveness of water systems.
CTS Water Microbiology supports clients in meeting BSRIA water testing compliance under BG29 and BG50 documentation. Our Leicester-based laboratory is perfectly situated to provide accredited testing of the key chemical and microbiological parameters that form BSRIA guidance, so you can make critical decisions using high-quality, accurate data.
Building Services Research & Information Association (BSRIA)
The Building Services Research and Information Association (BSRIA) is a non-profit, member-based association specialising in construction and building services. They help companies improve the design, build, and operation of buildings through support with health and safety, site investigations, building compliance, and more.
- BG29/2021 (“Pre-commission of Cleaning Pipework Systems”) covers the pre-commission cleaning of closed heating or cooling systems and ongoing maintenance of water quality, including chemical treatments and microbiological control / prevention.
- BG50/2021 (“Water Treatment for Closed Heating and Cooling Systems”) covers the avoidance of biofouling, corrosion, and scale in closed heating or cooling systems through appropriate water treatment, such as biocides, pH management, and more.
Regular BSRIA water testing is crucial for controlling chemical and microbiological levels in closed heating or cooling systems – preventing bacterial growth, corrosion, and scale.
