What is backflow testing?

Backflow testing assesses the integrity of a plumbing system to prevent the unwanted reversal of water flow. It ensures contaminated water does not flow backward into the clean water supply.

What does backflow testing involve?

Backflow testing involves checking backflow prevention devices, such as backflow preventers or check valves, to confirm they are functioning correctly. During the test, a certified backflow tester will assess the valves, pressure levels and functionality to verify that the system is effectively safeguarding against potential contamination.

Why is backflow testing so important?

Backflow testing is crucial for maintaining the safety of drinking water in homes, businesses and public facilities. It helps identify and address any issues that could compromise the integrity of the water supply, ensuring clean water remains uncontaminated and safe for consumption. Local regulations often mandate periodic backflow testing and certified professionals typically conduct these tests to meet plumbing codes and standards.
