What is a Backflow Prevention Device?
Water distribution systems are designed to flow in one specific direction from the distributor to the consumer. Sometimes, the hydraulic conditions inside the system can deviate, causing the flow of water to change directions. This is common in unprotected systems and can pollute the city drinking water. Backflow Prevention Devices prohibit possibly contaminated water from traveling back to your clean water supply.
Who needs to have a Backflow Test?
Per State Law, Backflow Prevention Devices are required anywhere potable water could come into contact with non-potable water or chemical hazards, such as irrigation systems, soda fountains, ice machines, car washes and medical offices.
Backflow Devices are required to be inspected and tested annually on all commercial properties. All new or replacement Backflow Devices must also be tested after installation to verify proper operation.
