BACKFLOW TESTING AND REPAIR

Backflow assemblies are composed of a series of Check Valves and or Relief Valves intended to prevent a backflow condition.  Water purveyors require annual testing of all backflow devices  to ensure water quality is met.

In the event that your water supply system experiences a pressure loss, a working backflow device will prevent any water that has already passed through does not siphon back into the public water supply. This is extremely relevant to irrigation systems and fire suppression systems as this water is typically stagnant and could be harmful.
