Backflows Must Be Tested Once A Year By A Certified Specialist
BACKFLOW TESTING: WHAT IS IT AND WHY DOES IT MATTER?
Mechanical backflow prevention devices protect municipal water systems from potential contamination. However, ware and debris can limit a device’s effectiveness. Backflow testing ensures the devices can keep contaminated liquids from flowing back into local clean water systems.
If water travels backward, contaminants from the sewer system can pollute it. In a home setting, this is extremely dangerous because you could end up drinking polluted water, which poses a risk to your health.
Health Concerns
01
Backflow preventers also stop buildings from getting damaged. Think about it, if the H2O travels backward, it’s likely to bump into the walls and get them all gross. This corrosion will lead to more substantial damage over time. If the water continuously hits the same spot, the walls will eventually crumble from the moisture. So, if you want to keep your buildings intact, test your backflow preventer today.
