Sentinel taps

Legionnaires' Disease - Operation and Maintenance Log Book (BG 58/2015), written by Reginald Brown and Salim Deramchi, and published by BSRIA in May 2015, defines sentinel taps as: ‘Taps at the beginning and end of hot water distribution circuits and at the end of cold water distribution pipes which can be regularly monitored for temperature to assess adherence to a temperature regime.’
