Legionella is a type of bacteria that breeds in drinking, industrial and cooling water.

At warm temperatures (25 – 45 degrees C ) the bacteria begin to multiply explosively.

Evaporative coolers and cooling towers represent a particular hazard, since aerosols containing legionella are produced and blown into the air. They can ever cause damage at a great distance, depending on the size of the installation.
