Backflow Preventer Installation
We provide backflow preventer installation that meets local plumbing codes and ensures contaminated water doesn’t flow into your clean water pipes. Our plumbers identify the ideal location for your backflow preventer and install it with meticulous attention to detail.
Backflow Preventer Testing
Your backflow preventer must be tested to ensure it’s working properly. Failure to regularly test your backflow preventer could result in wastewater entering the pipes that bring clean drinking water into your home. We provide backflow testing so your home will be in compliance with local codes and ensure your clean water pipes only flow one way.
Can I Test My Own Backflow Preventer?
No. Backflow preventers must be inspected by a licensed backflow tester. These professionals are required to be licensed by the Department of Natural Resources in order to perform this service. Some municipalities will require a licensed plumber with a DNR to test backflow preventers. It is not a task that homeowners can perform on their own.
