SENIOR LIVING & LONG-TERM CARE
Your residents are the most vulnerable people in your building.

-
State Health Departments - Enforce Legionella testing and water safety requirements at the state level.
-
The Joint Commission Standard EC.02.05.02 - Requires a water management program in accredited facilities (where applicable).

EMERGENCY WATER SAFETY RESPONSE
Expert Support. Immediate Response.
Same-day dispatch
When Legionella is confirmed at a senior living or long-term care facility, immediate corrective action is required. CMS, the Joint Commission, and state health authorities expect implemented, documented control measures at the follow-up inspection. Purchase orders and proposals are not sufficient to satisfy audit requirements or ensure resident safety.
Installed point-of-use filtration with FDA and ASTM documentation provides a clear, auditable corrective measure.
MWT systems are designed for same-day dispatch, allowing facility maintenance staff to complete installation in under 5 minutes per fixture. This provides an instant physical barrier at the point of patient contact without the need for a licensed plumber or room shutdowns.
