If you have legionella in your hot water, the issue isn't going to come from drinking it, but inhaling it when you shower. As long as you don't have a dead leg in your water system or a circuit that stagnates for long periods of time, legionella is pretty much a non-issue in the vast majority of homes, even older homes.
