“HC Info’s LAMPS program is a great way for engineers to get a better understanding of how to mitigate Legionella growth in a plumbing system. The sessions had content that were good for entry level engineers all the way up to experienced engineers. I came away with a few different ideas of how I’d modify my design approach to further mitigate Legionella risk. Thanks again for being willing to work with our ASPE Chapter to get this much needed training to our members!”

Do I need a water management plan?
It is important to manage any water system type that is prone to Legionella growth and transmission. This includes (but is not limited to) domestic/potable plumbing systems, decorative fountains, cooling towers, and whirlpool spas. See page 3 of the CDC guide to developing a water management program.
Can I manage multiple buildings with one plan?
Per the ASHRAE 188/514 framework, buildings located on different sites/properties should have separate water management plans (WMPs) even if the buildings are similar in size and type and located in the same city. An exception could be buildings located on properties that are adjacent or across the street, provided they are managed by the same personnel and the flow diagrams make sense.
However, only one WMP is needed for a campus with several buildings – even 100+ buildings – as long as they are managed by the same personnel.
Which version of LAMPS should I choose?
If you need a water management plan to comply with ASHRAE 188, ASHRAE 514, other standards, CMS, or regulations, then select LAMPS Plan or LAMPS Complete. Select LAMPS Complete if you need to comply with AAMI ST108, will be testing temperature, disinfectant, Legionella, or other water quality parameters. If you do not need a WMP and just want to manage data for water quality monitoring, select LAMPS Benchmark.
Does LAMPS have functionality for monitoring multiple properties?
Yes. LAMPS has a portfolio report for comparing multiple properties on several metrics.
Which specific standards does LAMPS help me comply with?
ASHRAE Standards 188 and 514, AAMI ST108, ASSE/IAPMO/ANSI Standard 12080, and others.
Can LAMPS generate a 'defensible' report if an inspector visits unexpectedly?
Yes. LAMPS has a Compliance report, water quality summary report, and PDF download of the entire plan.
Can LAMPS integrate with my building's existing IoT sensors or BMS (Building Management System)?
Yes. To talk with an unbiased expert about it, ask us how.
Why do I need a WMP instead of a spreadsheet or policy we currently have?
Truly healthy buildings need a comprehensive water management program, rather than a static document, to control Legionella and other pathogens in the building. See related articles:
How do I purchase a water management program?
Our e-commerce is all automated. You can purchase any LAMPS product directly from the LAMPS purchase page.
How does LAMPS work? Can I get a demo?
Our team is happy to meet with you for a short demonstration of the LAMPS software. Request a DEMO.
Is our data secure?
Yes. LAMPS has been scrutinized by many large, security-conscious organizations – prestigious hospital systems, big tech firms, large hotels and casinos, federal and state government entities – that are now customers trusting LAMPS with their data. If you have questions about our security features, please ask us about it.
Do you provide setup assistance?
We provide software support. Our implementation partners provide setup services.
Can we migrate our existing program to LAMPS?
Yes. You can upload your flow diagrams to LAMPS, upload water quality data via a spreadsheet, and enter other data manually. You can also upload your prior WMP document to the LAMPS documentation section, to refer back to.
What training does our team need?
It depends on each team member’s role. LAMPS offers 7 free courses for all members of the WMP team, and others at a discount. You can assign courses based each team member’s responsibilities. ASSE 12080 Legionella Specialist certification has become the standard for anyone who provides Legionella-related services or has a key role in managing water systems for Legionella control.
What is water quality benchmarking?
Please click to see an overview of LAMPS Water Quality Benchmarking.
Can I set different permission levels (e.g., View-Only for executives, Edit for technicians)?
Yes. When adding users to a WMP you can select one of three permission levels, ranging from read only access to full configuration.
