Backflow testing is a crucial process that ensures the safety of your drinking water supply.

When is Backflow Testing Required?

• Annually: Most municipalities require annual backflow testing to ensure the safety of the water supply.
• After Repairs or Maintenance: If any repairs or maintenance are performed on the backflow prevention device, a follow-up test is typically required.

What is Backflow?

• Backflow occurs when contaminated water flows backwards into the clean water supply.
• This can happen due to a drop in water pressure within the municipal water system.
• Contaminants can include sewage, chemicals, or other harmful substances.

Why is Backflow Testing Important?

• Protects Public Health: Prevents the contamination of the drinking water supply, safeguarding the health of the community.
• Complies with Regulations: Most municipalities have regulations requiring annual backflow testing to ensure compliance.
• Identifies Potential Problems: Early detection of backflow issues allows for timely repairs and prevents costly contamination incidents.

What Happens During Backflow Testing?

• A qualified plumber or backflow specialist will:
  
  - Inspect the Backflow Prevention Device: Visually inspect the device for any signs of damage or wear and tear.
  
  - Conduct the Test: Perform a series of tests to ensure the device is functioning correctly and preventing backflow. This may involve increasing pressure within the system to simulate conditions that could cause backflow.
  
  - Issue a Report: Provide a detailed report of the test results, including any necessary repairs or maintenance.
