What is a Backflow Device and Why Do I Need It Tested?

A backflow prevention device is used to protect potable water supplies from contamination or pollution due to backflow. In water supply systems, water is normally maintained at a significant pressure to enable water to flow from the tap, shower, or other fixture. We all want clean, safe water to use..therefore, it's imperative that your backflow gets tested annually and repaired as soon as possible to avoid contamination. We want you and your family to have the best water possible.
