Free seminars are being arranged to help letting agents get to grips with the legalities and praticalities of assessing legionella risk in residential rental properties.
Inventory service No Letting Go is staging the webinars following a rise in concern about the condition, and how it impacts the private rental sector.
Public Health England recently reported on the death of three men from the disease, caught from a hot tub on display at a garden centre in 2012, which had not been filtered or cleaned for weeks.

Some 21 other people were also found to have caught the bug from the same outbreak.
