What Causes Backflow?

Backflow happens when the water in a plumbing system flows in the opposite direction. This reversal can draw contaminated water into the public supply. Common causes include water pressure changes, cross-connections, or malfunctions in the plumbing system. Businesses that operate with chemicals, irrigation systems, or large water demands face a greater risk and must stay compliant with backflow prevention rules.

City and state regulations require backflow prevention devices on commercial properties. These assemblies must pass annual testing to remain in compliance. Our certified testers perform thorough inspections using industry-standard procedures, helping keep your property within code and avoiding potential fines.
