Importance of Regular Backflow Testing

Regular backflow testing is essential to ensure the safety and purity of your water supply. Backflow prevention systems are designed to prevent contaminated water from flowing back into the clean water supply, protecting you and your property from potential health hazards.

Here are a few reasons why regular backflow testing is important:

• Compliance with local regulations: Many municipalities require annual backflow testing to ensure that the water supply remains safe and uncontaminated.
• Protection of public health: Backflow incidents can result in the contamination of drinking water, posing serious health risks to you and your community.
• Preservation of water quality: Regular testing helps to maintain the integrity of the water supply, ensuring that it remains clean and safe for consumption.
• Prevention of costly repairs: Identifying and addressing potential issues through regular testing can help prevent costly repairs and damage to your plumbing system.

When Should I Have My Backflow Prevention System Tested?

There are a few reasons you may need to have your backflow prevention system tested:

• New construction or renovations – If you are building a new structure or performing renovations, it's important to have your backflow prevention system tested to ensure it is working properly.
• You notice water discoloration or a foul odor – If your water has a brown or yellow tint, or a foul odor, it may be contaminated. In this case, you need to have your backflow prevention system tested to ensure it is working properly.
• You notice water bills that are higher than usual – If your water bills are higher than usual, it may be due to a leak in your plumbing system. Testing your backflow prevention system will help you determine if it is working properly and rule out a plumbing leak.
• You're selling your home – If you are planning to sell your home, it's important to test your backflow prevention system to ensure it's working properly and is not contaminated. A contaminated backflow prevention system can hurt your property value and even pose a health hazard to potential buyers.
