What is Backflow?
And Why is Testing Important?
Backflow occurs when the normal flow of water reverses, potentially allowing contaminated water from your irrigation system to enter the clean water supply. This can happen due to changes in water pressure, often caused by issues like a burst pipe or a sudden increase in demand from fire hydrants or other high-use water outlets.
Testing your backflow prevention devices annually is essential for safeguarding your drinking water and complying with local ordinances. Regular testing ensures that your system is functioning correctly, preventing the risk of contamination that could lead to health hazards.
Understanding Backflow Prevention Devices
Backflow prevention devices are installed in irrigation systems and plumbing to prevent contaminated water from flowing back into the main water supply. These devices are required by law in most areas, particularly for commercial properties or residential irrigation systems.
Our team at Green-Up Irrigation is highly trained in testing, inspecting, and maintaining various types of backflow preventers, ensuring your property remains in compliance with local regulations.
