AS/NZS 3666 Part 3 – Legionella Control Australia

AS/NZS 3666 - Legionella Control AustraliaAir-Handling and Water Systems of Buildings – Microbial Control – Performance Based Maintenance of Cooling Water Systems

AS/NZS 3666 Part 3 – The Australian Standard/New Zealand Standard AS/NZS 3666 Part 3 is concerned with the control of microorganisms, including Legionella bacteria within air handling and cooling water systems in commercial buildings.

Additional Standards

You should be aware that this standard, AS/NZS 3666 Part 3 only covers the performance of maintenance programs for cooling water systems and that it should be used together with AS/NZS 3666 Part 1 and the relevant clauses of AS/NZS 3666 Part 2.

It is also important to note that issues including facilities and building maintenance manuals, site log books and health and safety procedures, are as important for the application of AS/NZS 3666 Part 3 as they are for a prescriptive approach to maintaining clean cooling water systems.
