Relationship between colonization of hospital building with Legionella pneumophila and hot water temperatures.

J F Plouffe, L R Webster, B Hackman.   

Abstract

Legionella pneumophila was isolated from four hospital buildings that maintained hot water storage temperatures at 43 to 45 degrees C. Two adjacent hospital buildings with negative cultures maintained temperatures at 58 to 60 degrees C.
