Water sampling and laboratory analysis
Accredited testing for building services, closed systems and potable water supplies
Accredited water sampling and laboratory analysis
We provide specialist water sampling and laboratory analysis for closed systems, domestic water services and process water applications. Samples are analysed through our UKAS-accredited laboratory partner, Normec Latis Scientific, supporting compliance with BSRIA, HTM and British Standards requirements.
Microbiological testing
Chemical analysis
Legionella monitoring
UKAS-accredited laboratory testing
Early detection
Identify corrosion, bacteria and contamination before they develop into costly system issues.
Compliance assurance
Meet BSRIA, HTM and British Standards requirements through UKAS-accredited laboratory analysis.
Risk reduction
Prevent Legionella outbreaks, corrosion damage and system failures through informed treatment decisions.
Independent laboratory verification
Results analysed by UKAS-accredited laboratory partner Normec Latis Scientific provide reliable evidence for compliance, handover and ongoing monitoring.
Where water sampling delivers measurable results
Our laboratory analysis supports building services, water treatment programmes and industrial applications. From commissioning verification to ongoing compliance monitoring, sampling is tailored to each system and regulatory requirement.
Closed heating and chilled systems
Monitor iron, copper, inhibitor levels, pH and conductivity to maintain system efficiency and prevent corrosion.
Domestic hot and cold water supplies
Verify potable water quality and identify microbiological contamination in building water systems.
Cooling towers and open systems
Monitor Legionella risk, microbiological activity and water quality in evaporative cooling applications.
Commissioning and pre-handover testing
Verify system cleanliness, water quality and compliance before practical completion and client handover.
How we conduct testing
A structured sampling and laboratory analysis process for accurate, compliant results
Sampling strategy and point identification
We review the system, sampling requirements and applicable standards to determine representative sample locations.
Controlled sample collection
Samples are collected using approved procedures to prevent contamination and maintain chain of custody.
UKAS-accredited laboratory analysis
Samples are analysed by our laboratory partner, Normec Latis Scientific, for microbiological, chemical and corrosion-related parameters.
Results, interpretation and recommendations
Clear reports provide test results, compliance status and practical recommendations for treatment or further investigation.
Questions
Common questions about our water sampling and laboratory analysis service
We test in accordance with BSRIA guidance, HTM requirements and relevant British Standards. Samples are analysed by UKAS-accredited laboratories, including Normec Latis Scientific, providing reliable results for compliance, commissioning and ongoing monitoring.
Turnaround times depend on the analysis required and laboratory workload. We work closely with our UKAS-accredited laboratory partners to provide results as quickly as possible and will advise expected timescales before sampling.
Yes. We interpret results and recommend appropriate remedial measures based on test outcomes. Our technical team can advise on water treatment, system flushing, or further sampling protocols as needed.
Sampling frequency depends on system type, risk assessment and applicable guidance. Closed systems, potable water systems and healthcare environments may all have different requirements. We can advise a suitable sampling programme for your site.
Yes. Water sampling is often carried out during commissioning and pre-handover stages to verify water quality, demonstrate compliance and support successful project completion.
