Cooling the Catch: Engineering the New Sydney Fish Market

Welcome to CIBSE Talking Buildings, the podcast show where we explore the hidden systems shaping our world, and the risks we often overlook.

In this episode, we turn on the tap and take a deep dive into water quality in Australia, from the plumbing inside hospitals to the creeks flowing behind our homes. Our guest is Dr. Annette Davison, Principal Risk Scientist at Risk Edge, an expert in water safety, environmental risk, and plumbing systems with a passion for practical solutions.

Together, we unpack:
The hidden risks lurking in Australia’s water infrastructure
Why geography, aging systems, and human behaviour all matter
The power of initiatives like One Creek and water hygiene superhero training
Real-world incidents from the Incidents Online database—and what we’ve learned

Whether you're a facility manager, policy maker, engineer, or just someone who uses a tap every day, this episode will change how you think about water. From system design to community action, water quality is everyone’s business, and it starts with understanding the risks.
