Fan supplying water droplets to restaurant

A fan of legionella

I recently visited the area of Phuket and I spotted in a restaurant three fans that used untreated water to cool down the clients of the restaurant. The water came from tanks situated in an elevated position in the sun above the restaurant and appeared not to have lids and was supplied to the fans by plastic pipework in the sun.

Of course I did not eat there but I recall an outbreak about six months after my visit of two hotels on the same strip. (or was it indeed the hotels!)
