Legionella analysis takes 10-14 days from the date we receive it at our lab to the reporting of results

We report Legionella under 3 categories; Legionella pneumophila serogroup 1, Legionella pneumophila serogroup 2-15 and Legionella species.

The amount of water to be sampled and how it is packaged is vitally important to the test. Iota will provide you with the correct sample bottles for your testing. Give us a call if you are unsure, we will be happy to advise you.
