Legionellen prophylaxis and the nonsense of the regulations

Legionella pneumophila in the electron microscope (openPR) - nearly everyone means to know that it is good and correct to heat the warm water up in its domestic line now and then. The Installateur and engineer tell, because it is correct after its information and suggests certain Fachorgansiationen.

“The annual number of Legionellosen in Germany is not sufficient admits and becomes on 10,000 to 30,000 estimated,….” in such a way Dr. Tim of hitting a corner man of the Charité Berlin. With this number of illnesses by contaminated drinking water and the high numbers at deaths, hereby connected, such statements leave no longer indifferent.

Background: Legionellen, a bacterium which over fine water drops to the lung is taken up and at the surface of the lung racing fast increased, caused at the beginning as a pneumonia and treated similar symptoms with it frequently wrongly diagnosed and. This bacterium occurs in each fresh water and is thereby both in the warm and in the chilled water of buildings to be proven.

Due to unfortunately this very day the usual recommendations the following questions arise of relevant publications and specialized books: 1. How can a chilled water line are heated up, it achieves ideal temperaturetemperature temperatures nevertheless in times of the stagnation. 2. For the sterilization in hospitals 120°C are needed for 20 minutes. Maximally is 70°C to be enough there for few minutes in drinking water systems 3. What happened if a piece meat with approximately 70°C is warmed up Food, exactly the same as the Legionellen remains after this “Themperaturschock” food for following Legionellen is, which increased then within fewer hours again into the original state.

There to become tried with chemistry of the Legionellen gentleman, freely after the slogan: “At the mouth the effect of chemistry stops”. “That is nonsense”, says the physician, “chlorine products harms the human body, makes e.g. higher antibiotic employment necessary and extends the downtimes of freshly operated one in hospitals”.

It becomes time that the medical profession, biologists, physicists, planners and practical men from the sanitary sector as equivalent interlocutors to a table to sit down and measures discuss, which bacteria from line systems to remove and energy not unnecessarily waste or the health of humans to impair. One of these measures is the ultrafiltration, represents it nevertheless the only possibility of removing bacteria from the water and which no longer there is can also not more harm.
