Backflow FAQs
Why do I need my backflow assessed?
Backflow assemblies and devices have parts that can break down and wear out, just like the parts on your car. Having the backflow tested annually will help ensure that your potable water remains safe.
What is backpressure?
Any condition that could create pressure in the non-potable piping system greater than in the potable water system. Pressure caused by gravity due to elevation differences is an example.
What is backsiphonage?
A form of backflow due to negative or sub-atmospheric pressure within a potable water system.
