Lack of guidance for effective cleaning of fixed shower heads
Responses linked to these concerns
Each statement is shown once, even when linked to more than one concern.
Respondent positions A position is what this recipient says about the concern when it does not describe a specific action.3
Position
The Health and Safety Executive should review its Legionella guidance on showers and the installation and maintenance of shower systems.
Redirects responsibilityThe respondent said that another organisation was responsible for deciding or taking action.
Position
The showerhead may not itself be unsafe; Legionella risk may arise from the whole installation and water-system management rather than component design.
Disputes the concernThe respondent disagreed with part of the concern or the basis for it.
Position
Permanently installed showerheads are likely supplied to the plumbing trade and therefore fall outside the regulations’ remit.
Outside remitThe respondent said that this matter was outside its role or authority.
