What Is Backflow? Why Is Backflow Prevention Important?
Backflow develops when there is a cross-connection between the municipal water line and a private plumbing line. Without a working backflow prevention device installed, wastewater can start to flow in reverse from private lines and enter the city's water line - which leads to contamination.
Both backpressure and back-siphonage can result in backflow. Backpressure is what happens when the water pressure in a private plumbing system starts to exceed the pressure in the city's line. Back-siphonage often occurs when there is a break in the main municipal water line or if a fire hydrant is illegally opened.
This is why a working backflow prevention system is crucial to the health and safety of our community's clean water supply. Reach out today to discuss your backflow prevention needs and let our plumbers help with device installation, repair or testing.
What Types of Properties Require Backflow Prevention?
Backflow prevention devices are required in all multi-family homes and commercial facilities. Single-family homes are also required to have devices installed if they feature an irrigation system (like lawn sprinklers), a private well system or swimming pool.
