Microbiological analysis for Pool, Swimming Pool, and Bathing Pond Water

Pool, Schwimmbad und Badeteichwasser Mikrobiologie
  • Private Pools (Outdoor & Indoor): Microbiology

    125.00 CHF
    Total microbial count (Aerobic, mesophilic germs), Escherichia coli., Pseudomonas aeruginosa
    Determination of the microbiological quality of water in indoor and outdoor pools with water treatment

    This analysis package provides an overview of the microbial water quality based on the requirements for publicly accessible swimming pools with chemical water treatment (chlorination) according to the Swiss Water Treatment Ordinance (TBDV): The total bacterial count (also called aerobic, mesophilic bacteria) provides information about the general microbial load of the water. Escherichia coli, as an indicator bacteria, indicates microbial contamination of the water, and Pseudomonas aeruginosa, a water germ with the potential to pose a health risk, must also be excluded from publicly accessible swimming pool water.

    125.00 CHF
  • Swimming and Bathing Ponds: Microbiology

    130.00 CHF
    Enterococci, Escherichia coli., Pseudomonas aeruginosa
    Determination of the microbiological quality of water in natural swimming and bathing ponds
    This analysis package provides an overview of the microbial water quality based on the requirements for public swimming pools with biological water treatment according to the Swiss Water Treatment Ordinance (TBDV): Enterococci and Escherichia coli are indicator bacteria for microbial contamination. Pseudomonas aeruginosa, a waterborne pathogen, can also be harmful to health in higher concentrations.
    130.00 CHF
  • Whirlpools and Steam Baths: Legionella

    116.00 CHF
    Legionella total, including Legionella spp., Legionella pneumophila serogroups 1, 2–14, and other L. pneumophila
    Microbial testing for Legionella in Spa Baths over 23°C with Aerosol Formation (Whirlpools, Hot Tubs etc.) and Steam Baths
    This analysis provides information on the presence of Legionella in the water of bubble baths and steam baths (whirlpools, hot tubs, etc.) in accordance with the requirements for publicly accessible baths according to TBDV:
    Due to their potential health risk, Legionella are only permitted in low concentrations in shower water in publicly accessible baths and shower facilities. Therefore, if Legionella are detected in shower water or the piping system, further investigations and measures should be considered, especially when aerosols are formed.
    116.00 CHF
  • Whirlpools and Steam Baths: Microbiology

    242.00 CHF
    Total microbial count (Aerobic, mesophilic germs), Escherichia coli., Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Legionella total, including Legionella spp., Legionella pneumophila serogroups 1, 2–14, and other L. pneumophila
    Determination of the microbiological quality in Spa Baths over 23°C with Aerosol Formation (Whirlpools, Hot Tubs etc.) and Steam Baths
    This analysis provides information on the presence of Legionella in the water of bubble baths and steam baths (whirlpools, hot tubs, etc.) in accordance with the requirements for publicly accessible baths according to TBDV: The total microbial count (also called aerobic, mesophilic microorganisms) provides information on the overall microbial load of the water. Escherichia coli serves as an indicator organism for microbial contamination of the water, and Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Legionella, due to their health risk potential, must also be excluded from water in publicly accessible bathing facilities.
