Water and legionella risk assessment software for consultants
A legionella risk assessment is one of the most document heavy visits a water hygiene consultant carries out. Lytom Assess structures it: system identification, management checks, temperature records, an asset register, a prioritised action plan and a certificate, issued as branded PDFs to the client's portal.

Each part of the assessment has its place
The structure follows common practice under HSE L8 and HSG274. Blocks are switched on or off per site so the PDF reflects the scope.
Survey and systems
Domestic hot and cold water, evaporative cooling, healthcare systems, spa pools, adiabatic plant, fire fighting systems and other hazard categories, with building services narrative and source of supply.
Schematics
Indicative schematic drawings uploaded for the site and included or excluded from the PDF.
Asset register
Locations, medium and high risk outlets, low risk outlet presence, responsibilities and comments for each area.
Visit temperature log
Sentinel outlet temperatures by location and date, with cold water storage tank inspection fields where a tank visit is in scope.
System checks
Yes, no and not applicable checklists across operation, management control, storage and distribution. A failed check flags further action.
Controls
Hot water temperatures, thermostatic mixing valves, storage tanks, dead legs, showers and cooling towers marked compliant or action required, with progress shown by category.
Action plan
Prioritised actions with target dates, sign off and references back to the survey.
Certificate
A legionella risk assessment certificate PDF generated alongside the full report, in the consultancy branding.
Recorded while walking the building
System checks and temperature readings are entered on the iOS app or a browser while on site. Back at the desk the PDF is previewed, reviewed and published to the client's portal, where the report, the certificate and the actions are held together.
Lytom Assess is the consultant's tool. If the client uses Lytom Comply, their outlet flushing, temperature checks, descaling and tank inspections are recorded there, next to the assessment and its actions.
