Do I Need BackFlow Testing?
You have likely received a notification regarding backflow assembly testing. If you're wondering about the purpose, necessity, and process of backflow prevention, we're here to provide clarity.
What is backflow and a backflow assembly?
Backflow is the reversal of water flow in pipes, potentially caused by breaks or pressure changes. A Backflow Prevention Assembly, often a double-check assembly in irrigation systems, prevents this reversal at cross-connection sources.
Why do I need a backflow preventer?
Backflow prevention safeguards your potable water supply from contaminants like fertilizers, herbicides, and bacteria. This protects you, your family, and your community from health hazards.
Why do I need to have mine tested?
Regular testing ensures your backflow assembly functions correctly, meeting safety standards. As a water consumer, it's your responsibility to prevent contamination.
