Our backflow prevention team tests and certifies all backflow prevention devices.  Our technicians are state certified and go through intensive training to earn their certifications.

Below are some of the items that are inspected when a backflow is tested: Is there damage to the assembly? Is there rust on the assembly? Are all parts of the assembly in place? Is the assembly working properly?

Backflow Prevention:
Backflow prevention is also known as cross connection control. Backflow prevention devices keep contaminated water from flowing back into the main water system.  Contaminated water is kept out of the system by a set of valves which close when backflow occurs.  Backflow is often caused by a drop in the pressure on the supply side.  The drop in pressure causes a vacuum which can pull water back into the system if a backflow prevention device is not present.
