Comment on Call Before You Dig
A_A@lemmy.world 3 weeks agoMaybe i missed your point if you meant that aerosolization will occur readily simply when opening a faucet … ?
Otherwise - - documentation :
en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Legionella
Temperature affects the survival of Legionella as follows : [3]
- Above 70 °C (158 °F) – Legionella dies almost instantly
- At 60 °C (140 °F) – 90% die in 2 minutes (Decimal reduction time (D) = 2 minutes)
i would not expect much aerosolization if heated slowly … and you did not provide any documentation.

" … the tap was fitted with an aerator …"
With this i can see now how they get aerosol from tap water.
