Why Do We Even Need This Test?
Consider your water system like a one-way street; water should always flow forward, clean and safe. Backflow occurs when water flows in the wrong direction. Two primary causes can bring unclean water into your home or business:
Back-Siphonage: This occurs when the pressure in the city water line falls abruptly. For instance, a nearby fire hydrant opening or a damaged water main might draw polluted water back into your lines from the pure water supply.
Back-Pressure: Some equipment in your house, including pumps, boilers, or irrigation systems, can generate greater pressure than the municipal lines. This draws back water, pulling contaminants into the clean water.
A backflow preventer is a device installed on your property to prevent water from flowing in the wrong direction. Every year, we use appropriate equipment to examine the valves and seals, ensuring they function as intended.
Good backflow testing ensures your water stays clean and your home or business remains secure. Our skilled crew guarantees fast, simple, and trustworthy results.
