When to Call
When You May Need Backflow Service
Backflow problems and requirements can arise from an existing prevention device, changes to a plumbing system, irrigation connections, or a notice from a local water authority. A backflow plumber can inspect the situation and determine what type of service is appropriate.
A notice from a water authority or municipality may identify a testing, device, documentation, or plumbing requirement that needs to be addressed.
Water leaking or discharging from a backflow assembly can indicate a condition that should be inspected before deciding whether repair or replacement is appropriate.
A failed backflow test may lead to repair, replacement, or retesting depending on the condition of the assembly and the applicable requirements.
Irrigation systems, water service changes, and certain other connections may affect how backflow protection should be handled.
If you cannot identify the existing device or do not know whether the property has appropriate backflow protection, a plumbing assessment can help clarify the setup.
Older, damaged, inaccessible, or unreliable backflow assemblies may need maintenance, repair, relocation, or replacement depending on their condition.
Assessment
How We Determine the Right Backflow Service
The right backflow service depends on the existing plumbing setup, the type and condition of the backflow device, the reason for the service request, and any applicable testing or installation requirements.
Review the Situation
We start with the reason for the call, such as a backflow notice, failed test, leaking device, plumbing change, or concern about an existing assembly.
Inspect the Plumbing and Device
The technician evaluates the accessible backflow assembly, nearby piping, valves, connections, and other relevant parts of the plumbing system.
Identify the Appropriate Service
Based on the condition and purpose of the system, the next step may involve testing, repair, replacement, or installation of a backflow prevention device.
Explain the Next Step
We explain what was found and which service is appropriate before moving forward with the work.

Backflow Basics
What Is Backflow in Plumbing?
Backflow is the unwanted reversal of water flow in a plumbing system. Instead of moving in its intended direction, water can flow backward when pressure conditions change.
This matters because reverse flow can allow water from irrigation piping, fixtures, equipment, or other connections to move toward the potable water supply. Backflow prevention is used to reduce this risk at vulnerable plumbing connections.
Backpressure
Backpressure can occur when pressure on the downstream side of a plumbing connection becomes greater than the pressure in the potable water supply.
Backsiphonage
Backsiphonage can occur when supply pressure drops and creates conditions that allow water to be drawn backward through a connection.
Cross-Connections
A cross-connection is a point where the potable water system can come into contact with another water source, system, fixture, or piece of equipment.
Potable Water Protection
Backflow protection helps prevent water from an unprotected connection from reversing direction toward the drinking water supply.
Backflow Preventers
A backflow preventer is a plumbing device or assembly designed to stop reverse flow at a protected connection.
Different Plumbing Applications
Backflow protection may be used with irrigation systems, commercial plumbing, and other connections where the plumbing configuration creates a potential cross-connection.

Questions
Backflow Services FAQs
Answers to common questions about backflow notices, testing requirements, failed devices, scheduling service, and other practical backflow concerns.
Ready to Schedule Backflow Service?
Who should I call if I receive a backflow notice?
A licensed plumbing or backflow service provider can review the notice, inspect the existing plumbing or device, and help determine what work may be needed. When scheduling service, have a copy or photo of the notice available if possible.
Does every backflow preventer need to be tested every year?
Not necessarily. Testing requirements can vary by device type, property, water provider, and local jurisdiction. If you received a testing notice, follow the requirements and deadline provided by the applicable authority.
What happens if a backflow device fails a test?
A failed test does not automatically mean the entire device must be replaced. Depending on the condition of the assembly, it may be possible to repair the device and test it again. Replacement may be more appropriate if the assembly is damaged, deteriorated, or not suitable for continued service.
What information should I provide when scheduling backflow service?
If available, provide the property address, the reason for service, any notice or test report you received, and photos of the existing backflow device. Information about leaks, previous repairs, or recent plumbing changes can also be helpful.
Is a leaking backflow preventer an emergency?
A leaking or discharging backflow device should be inspected rather than ignored. The urgency depends on the severity of the leak, where the water is going, and whether the device or surrounding plumbing is still operating properly.
Is backflow the same as a sewer backup?
No. Backflow refers to water reversing direction within a plumbing or water-supply system. A sewer backup involves wastewater or sewage moving backward through the drainage system. They are different plumbing problems and may require different equipment and repairs.
Does every home need a backflow prevention device?
No single answer applies to every property. The need for backflow protection depends on the plumbing configuration, cross-connections, irrigation or other connected systems, and applicable local requirements.
Can I identify what backflow device I have before scheduling service?
Sometimes. A manufacturer label, model number, and clear photos of the assembly can help identify the device. If the device cannot be identified from that information, it can be evaluated during an on-site service visit.
