What is Backflow testing?
Backflow testing is a safety check that confirms a backflow prevention device is working correctly to stop contaminated water from flowing back into the clean drinking water supply. Backflow can occur when pressure changes in the plumbing system cause water from irrigation lines, commercial equipment, fire services, or other sources to reverse direction and enter the mains. During a test, a licensed plumber uses calibrated equipment to verify that the device seals and holds pressure as designed, then records the results for compliance purposes. Regular testing helps protect public health and ensures your property meets local water authority requirements.
