The Algarve has characteristics that make Legionella control and prevention especially relevant:
- a warm climate for much of the year;
- heavy use of hotels and tourist accommodation;
- water systems subject to intensive use;
- periods of lower use in some seasonal establishments.
Without proper monitoring, these conditions can favour the growth of the bacteria.
For this reason, hotels, local accommodation, gyms, swimming pools, spas, clinics and commercial buildings should implement effective preventive measures.
